Opportunistic Salpingectomy at the Time of Cesarean Delivery: A Randomized Controlled Trial of the Safety of Salpingectomy vs Tubal Ligation
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Bilateral Salpingectomy and Bilateral Tubal Ligation for Contraception. Completed, enrolled 40 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety of performing a bilateral tubal ligation vs. bilateral salpingectomy, two procedures performed for permanent sterilization, at the time of cesarean delivery. The investigators want to determine if performing bilateral salpingectomy at the time of cesarean delivery poses any greater risk for blood loss, as compared to a bilateral tubal ligation.
