Thromboprophylaxis and pregnancy: two randomized controlled pilot trials that used low-molecular-weight heparin.
TL;DR: Pilot studies for large randomized controlled trials to compare low-molecular-weight heparin with placebo for antenatal thromboprophylaxis and after cesarean delivery indicate that large-scale trials using these designs would be difficult.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical techniques used during caesarean section operations: results of a national survey of practice in the UK
TL;DR: There was wide variation in the surgical techniques used by obstetricians for caesarean section operations and there is an urgent need for future research to evaluate many aspects of caesar section operations on substantive short- and long-term outcomes.
