    Study Summary Information
    Lay Summary
    Hyaluronidase (HAase) has many uses in medicine, and reports suggested its effects perineal tissues during fetal passage through the vaginal canal. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of perineal HAase injection for reducing spontaneous perineal trauma, use of episiotomy, and perineal edema in vaginal deliveries.

    Intervention Description
    Nulliparous women planning for a vaginal delivery were recruited as subjects, and the enrolled participants were randomly assigned to the study group (HAase injection, 5,000 IU, n=74) or to the placebo group (normal saline injection, n=71). The study group was treated with 3 ml of 5,000 IU HAase (Hirax®, BMI Korea, Korea), while the placebo group was treated with 3 ml of normal saline, and with 3 ml of 1% lidocaine chlorohydrate solution. Both the active drug and placebo were injected at the perineal subcutaneous tissue in the center of the perineum and in each side (left and right) within 1 hour before fetal expulsion through the vagina.

    Brief Summary
    In this study, we compared the incidence of episiotomy, severe perineal trauma, and improvement of perineal edema between HAase injection and placebo groups. Despite a lower proportion of episiotomy and severe perineal laceration (third- and fourth-degree lacerations) in the HAase injection group compared with the placebo group (52.7% vs 62.0% and 5.1% vs 9.1%, respectively), there was no statistically significant difference. But the women receiving HAase injection had significantly improved perineal edema at 24 hours compared with those receiving placebo (p=0.01). No serious adverse events were noted in both groups.
