Summary
The objective of the study is to demonstrate whether cooling the uterine smooth muscle during
cesarean section (following delivery of the fetus) will promote better uterine contraction
and involution resulting in lower blood loss, use of fewer uterotonic medications, and fewer
hysterectomies following cesarean section for dysfunctional labor.
