Objective: To determine the effectiveness of intra umbilical vein Oxytocin injection alng with active management of third stage of labor The amount of blood loss during the third stage of labour Duration of third stage of labour Change in the hemoglobin level PPH occurred Incidence of retained placenta Need for blood transfusion Side effects of the drug if any Design: Randamized control trial Setting: Bangalore Bapist Hospital, Bangalore Methods: Source of Data: 230 women, who underwent vaginal delivery with/without episiotomy at Bangalore Baptist Hospital, were enrolled. The study was done for a period of 1 year from september 2012 to Auguest 2013.The etical clearance was taken before the study. Results: Intramuscular oxytocin was observed to be equally effective as intravenous methylergometrine in prevention of post-partum hemorrhage. There was no difference in the duration of third stage of labour, amount of blood loss, need for additional uterotonic agents, and need for blood transfusion in both the groups. There were no significant side effect in both the groups. Conclusion: Intramuscular oxytocin is as efficacious as Intravenous methylergometrine in the prevention of postpartum hemorrhage with no side effects.
Auto and allotransplantation of teeth have been done since ancient times, but very few cases are documented in the literature. Here is a rare case report of a 9-year-old female patient, in whom supplemental lateral incisor and mesiodens were used as an allotransplant, to replace the missing upper incisors. Of the two allotransplants, one tooth was rejected due to long storage of more than 6 h, while the other allotransplant, which was freshly extracted and transplanted, showed good periodontal healing, and proper functioning. The patient was followed up for a period of 2 years, and the accepted allotransplant showed good prognosis both clinically and radiographically with uneventful bone healing and maintenance of periodontal ligament space. The aim of this paper is to emphasize on the age old method of allotransplantation as a better treatment options, in compromised conditions.
