The Release Trial: a randomised controlled trial of umbilical vein oxytocin versus placebo for the treatment of retained placenta.

HYPOTHESIS: Intraumbilical injection of oxytocin reduces the incidence of manual removal compared with placebo in the treatment of retained placenta. ENTRY CRITERIA: The women recruited will be stable haemodynamically, not bleeding vaginally, over 34 weeks of gestation and with a retained placenta for at least 30 minutes. TREATMENT ARMS: Oxytocin (50 IU) or sterile water (in identical vials) in 25 mL saline injected through an intraumbilical venous catheter. SAMPLE SIZE: Five hundred seventy-two women. PRIMARY ENDPOINT: Need for manual removal of placenta. CENTRES: Initially, there will be two study sites in the UK (Liverpool and Sheffield) and five in Uganda (Mulago, Nsambia, Mengo, Rubaga and Arua). FUNDING: World Health Organization and WellBeing of Women.[1]
