Evaluation of Clinical Outcomes and Acceptability of an Anatomical Classification for Placenta Accreta Spectrum

About

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the clinical implementation of intra-operative topographic classification system for PAS. In addition to a standard of care risk stratification prenatal ultrasound for patients with a risk of PAS, this study adds an additional intraoperative surgical staging protocol to validate the classification system, improve surgical approach, and significantly clinical outcomes of pregnant people with an a prior risk of PAS. The study will involve pregnant patients with PAS risk factor, include data collection spanning prenatal assessment, intraoperative classification, surgical technique implementation and postoperative analysis. The anticipated study duration is approximately 36-48 months.
