Drug Information available for: Oxytocin

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
Oxytocin
This group will be given 3 IU / 3 ml oxytocin (intravenously) after the clamping of the umbilical cord. Uterine tonus will be assessed after 60 seconds and if it is lower than 7, oxytocin 3 IU / 3 ml will be repeated, up to a maximum of three times. If uterine tonus is still lower than 7, rescue uterotonics such as intramuscular methylergonovine or intravenous misoprostol will be administered.
Drug: Oxytocin
To be given to Oxytocin group following the clamping of the umbilical cord

Carbetocin
This group will be given 100 mcg / 3 ml carbetocin (intravenously) after the clamping of the umbilical cord. If uterine tonus is lower than 7, rescue uterotonics such as intramuscular methylergonovine or intravenous misoprostol will be administered.
Drug: Carbetocin
To be given to Carbetocin group following the clamping of the umbilical cord




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Urine volume [ Time Frame: Intraoperative period ]
    Total amount of intraoperative urine output in milliliters

  2. Urinary sodium [ Time Frame: Preoperative, Postoperative 2nd, 4th, 24th hours ]
    The change in urinary sodium content (milligrams) compared to the preoperative period

  3. Blood sodium [ Time Frame: Preoperative, Postoperative 2nd, 4th, 24th hours ]
    The change in blood sodium content (milligrams) compared to the preoperative period


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Blood osmolality [ Time Frame: Preoperative, Postoperative 2nd, 4th, 24th hours ]
    The change in blood osmolality compared to the preoperative period

  2. Blood loss [ Time Frame: Intraoperative period ]
    The total volume of intraoperative blood loss

  3. Need for additional uterotonics [ Time Frame: Starting from the preoperative period, ending at the 24th postoperative hour ]
    Total dose (milligrams) of additional uterotonics administered

  4. Blood transfusion [ Time Frame: Starting from the clamping of the umbilical cord, ending at the 24th postoperative hour ]
    Total volume (milliliters) of blood transfused
