The purpose of the study is to assess the benefits of a therapeutic strategy that associates an early administration of human fibrinogen concentrate in the management of PPH on the reduction of bleeding after the initiation of prostaglandins intravenous infusion, following vaginal delivery.

  • Known placenta praevia or accreta
  • Hb level < 10g/dl during the third trimester of pregnancy
  • History of venous or arterial thromboembolic event
  • Known inherited bleeding or thrombotic disorders
  • Treatment with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) within 24 hours prior to the inclusion
  • Treatment with acetylsalicylic acid within 5 days prior to the inclusion
  • Treatment with vitamin K antagonists within 7 days prior to the inclusion
  • Administration of fibrinogen concentrate within 48 hours prior to the inclusion
  • Administration of FFP, platelets units or prohaemostatic drugs, tranexamic acid and rFVIIa or prothrombin complex concentrates (PCC) within 48 hours prior to the inclusion
  • Administration of RBCs within 3 months prior to the inclusion

  • Minors, majors under guardianship, persons staying in health or social institutes and people deprived of their freedom
  • Known drug or alcohol abuse
  • Patients whose use of concomitant medication may interfere with the interpretation of data
  • Any other current significant medical condition that might interfere with treatment evaluation according to the investigator's judgement
  • Patients who are unlikely to survive through the treatment period and evaluation
  • Patients transferred from another service

Treatment and study plan

Human fibrinogen concentrate

Drug

Injection as soon as possible and within 30 min following the start of prostaglandin infusion

Other names: Clottafact, LFB

Placebo

Drug

As soon as possible and within 30 min following the start of prostaglandin infusion

Primary outcomes

  1. Failure Rate of PPH Management

    Time frame: Evaluation of the two criteria that form the primary endpoint within the 48 h following the administration

    The primary efficacy variable is a binary (Failure versus Success) composite endpoint.

    Failure is defined when a patient:

    • loses at least 4 g/dL of Hb compared to the reference Hb level , AND/OR
    • requires the transfusion of at least 2 units of packed RBCs.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Patients With at Least Administration of 2 Units of RBCs

    Time frame: from H0 to Day 2

    Considering failure as the fact of requiring at least 2 units of RBCs.

  2. Patients With Loss of at Least 4 g/dL of Hb

    Time frame: From reference value to Day 2

    Considering failure as the fact of having lost at least 4 g/dL of Hb.
