Book excerpt: In this collection, a combined method of preventing and stopping a postpartum obstetric hemorrhage is proposed, involving surgical hemostasis by ligation of the descending branch of the uterine artery and placement of a hemostatic external supraplacental pleated suture, as well as mechanical compression of the uterine cavity with both vaginal and uterine Zhukovsky catheters, and coagulopathy management using thromboelastography (TEG). Uterine hemostatic sutures and their advantages and disadvantages are described in detail, and the benefits of the innovative external supraplacental pleated suture are discussed. Intrauterine balloon tamponade (IUBT) devices have been shown to to be an effective management for severe postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) resulting from uterine atony as well as placental site bleeding. IUBT have now been incorporated into standard protocols for management of severe PPH as a second line conservative surgical procedure due to its simplicity and relatively non-invasive nature. In recent decades, the use of second line procedures has rapidly increased and the effectiveness of these second-line procedures in reducing hysterectomy has been demonstrated in literature. Among these various second line procedures, the use of uterine balloon tamponade increased most rapidly. Balloon tamponade is less invasive and easier to apply than other second line management. Intrauterine balloon tamponade should probably be the first second-line procedure to consider in management of severe PPH. Lastly, the book discusses how anesthesia in pregnant women with rare diseases is challenging. Because of the low occurrence and heterogeneity of these diseases, most anesthesiologists are not familiar with the symptomatology, associated comorbidities, and their consequences for anesthesia. The authors suggest that peroperative monitoring should primarily focus on the cardiopulmonary system, the depth of the neuromuscular block, and the core temperature. Because of the high risk of respiratory depression following general anesthesia in patients with rare diseases, these patients should be closely monitored during the postoperative period, with an emphasis on complete reversal of neuromuscular blockade.

Download or read book Compression Sutures for Critical Hemorrhage During Cesarean Section written by Satoru Takeda and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a highly informative guide to surgical remedies for massive hemorrhage and the management of consumptive coagulopathy during cesarean section. Featuring extensive illustrations and videos coupled with detailed anatomical figures to offer readers vivid insights, it discusses the history of uterine hemostatic methods and explains their evolution and the benefits of using compression sutures. Further, it addresses the treatment of consumptive coagulopathy with massive hemorrhage, which can be complicated during cesarean section. It is broadly known that ligation of the internal iliac artery is not always effective in hemostasis of uterine bleeding: the success rate of hemostasis is only 40-60%, because uterine blood flow during pregnancy differs considerably from the normal flow. Moreover, the number of complex collateral arteries formed during pregnancy make the situation more complicated, especially in the case of placenta previa. This book introduces new clinical practice guidelines for critical obstetrical hemorrhage, helping obstetricians successfully manage consumptive coagulopathy. It offers a new and indispensable reference guide for all obstetricians, not only for residents, but also for experienced practitioners.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is a major cause of mortality, morbidity and long term disability related to pregnancy and childbirth. Effective interventions to prevent and treat PPH exist and can largely reduce the burden of this life-threatening condition. Given the availability of new scientific evidence related to the prevention and treatment of PPH, this document updates previous WHO recommendations and adds new recommendations for the prevention and treatment of PPH. The primary goal of this guideline is to provide a foundation for the implementation of interventions shown to have been effective in reducing the burden of PPH. Health professionals responsible for developing national and local health policies constitute the main target audience of this document. Obstetricians, midwives, general medical practitioners, health care managers and public health policy-makers, particularly in under-resourced settings are also targeted. This document establishes general principles of PPH care and it is intended to inform the development of clinical protocols and health policies related to PPH.

Book excerpt: Title: Secondary postpartum hemorrhage: incidence, etiologies and clinical courses in the setting of high cesarean delivery rate Authors: Kittiya Deevongkij, MD1, Chusana Petpichetchian, MD1, Natthicha Chainarong, MD1Institution: 1Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Faculty of Medicine, Prince of Songkla UniversityBackground: Secondary postpartum hemorrhage(SPPH) is any significant vaginal bleeding occurring between 24 hours after ending of third stage of labor and following 6 to 12 weeks. The reported incidence was around 0.2-0.8%.Common causes include retention of placenta, endometritis and delayed involution of placental bed.To date,there has been limited number of studies regarding SPPH. None of the previous studies were done in developing country with high cesarean section rate. Objective: To evaluate incidence,etiologies and clinical outcomes of SPPH in the population with high cesarean section rate. Secondary objective was to compare the etiologies of SPPH following cesarean delivery versus vaginal delivery.Methods: This was a retrospective study of women who were treated at tertiary-level hospital between January 2004 and June 2018. Descriptive statistics,Chi-square,Wilcoxon Rank Sum and Kruskal-Wallis test were used for data analysis.Results: Incidence of SPPH was 0.21%. Total of 123 women were studied. Median onset of bleeding was 12 days after delivery. Fifty-two percent of women were delivered by cesarean section. The most common etiology was endometritis(67.5%) followed by retained placental tissue(21.1%). Women who delivered by cesarean section had higher rate of endometritis(80.0%vs53.4%),while the rate of retained placental tissue was lower(10.8%vs32.8%) than those delivered vaginally. Surgical intervention included uterine evacuation in 29.3% and hysterectomy in 8.1% of women. Six women were treated by embolization. Transfusion was required in 29.3% women.Conclusion: Endometritis was the most common cause. Women who delivered by cesarean section were less likely to have retained placental tissue and were at higher risk for endometritis and uterine pseudoaneurysm.Keywords: Secondary postpartum hemorrhage,endometritis,retained placental tissue,uterine artery pseudoaneurysm.

Download or read book The Essential C Section Guide written by Maureen Connolly and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2008-12-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Childbirth is a life-altering experience for any woman, but a Cesarean delivery can be overwhelming, whether it’s unexpected or planned. Despite the fact that roughly one in four babies in the United States is delivered by c-section, very little information about the experience is included in typical pregnancy books and physicians and childbirth educators often gloss over the details. The Essential C-Section Guide is written not only for women to read in preparation for a scheduled c-section and for those considered “high risk” who know that a c-section may become necessary but also for women recovering from an unexpected surgical delivery. This book provides answers to important questions about what the surgery entails, what a woman can expect as she recovers, and what considerations should be made for future pregnancies and deliveries. With frank discussions about the physical and emotional aspects surrounding a c-section, the authors share comforting wisdom about early bonding, pain control, breastfeeding, infant care, healing from surgery, postpartum exercise, partner involvement, and much more, in detail not available anywhere else. Written by authors who have firsthand knowledge of birth by c-section, The Essential C-Section Guide is well-researched and addresses its unique concerns with intelligence and compassion. www.broadwaybooks.com
