Study Details

The Use of Blood Thinners after a Cesarean Delivery

(IRB#: IRB_00177040)

This study aims to better understand the use or non-use of blood thinners 10 days after a person has a cesarean delivery (the baby is delivered through a cut made in the stomach of the person giving birth). This study wants to better learn if the treatment helps prevent blood clots and is safe. Participants will have recently had a cesarean delivery at the University of Utah hospital. Participants will be asked if they would like to answer a few short follow-up questions. The questions will help learn if any complications have occurred since the delivery. If participants agree they will receive an online survey that will take about 5 minutes or less. If a complication did occur the study team will reach out to the participant via phone call or email for additional details.
