Balanced Crystalloids in Postpartum Hemorrhage

Postpartum Hemorrhage

Introduction: Obstetric hemorrhage is the most feared complication that can occur during childbirth and continues to be the leading cause of death in pregnant women worldwide, about 7 women die every hour in the world. This is defined as an accumulated loss of blood of more than 1000 mL with signs and symptoms of hypovolemia within 24 hours of the birth process. The main objective of resuscitation in these patients is precisely to reduce the deleterious effects that are generated from the depletion of volume and the altered capacity of oxygen transport. The current debate focuses on the safety and efficacy of each particular liquid during resuscitation and on improving long-term patient outcomes. At present, there is no conclusive evidence on the impact at the level of acid-base status, hydroelectrolytic balance and potential kidney injury with respect to the use of balanced solutions such as Plasma-Lyte or Ringer's Lactate. Objective: To determine the differences in the volume of liquids and blood products required with the use of balanced crystalloids (Ringer's Lactate or Plasma-Lyte) in patients with obstetric hemorrhage in the Hospital Universitario Fundación Santa Fe de Bogotá during 2018 - 2019. Design, Materials, and methods: Historical cohort analytical study. All patients over 18 years of age who present an obstetric hemorrhage defined as bleeding> 1000 mL or less associated with signs or symptoms of hemodynamic instability will be included. The most important exclusion criterion is the presence of active infection at the time of the event. Patients will be divided into two groups, those who underwent hydroelectrolytic resuscitation with Plasma-Lyte and Ringer Lactate. Results and conclusions With this study, we intend to describe the differences in the base acid status measured by arterial gases in patients with obstetric hemorrhage. The aim is to find a relationship between the different groups with clinical outcomes, such as days of ICU stay and hospitalization, blood transfusion requirement, electrolyte disorders, acute kidney injury and survival.

Inferior Vena Cava Diameter and Postpartum Hemorrhage

Other Immediate Postpartum HemorrhageWith Delivery

Excessive bleeding after normal birth or cesarean section is defined as blood loss of 1000 mL or more (clinically estimated) within 24 hours after birth. It occurs in about 5% among postpartum women. Postpartum hemorrhage is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among women giving birth. Postpartum hemorrhage may lead to hemorrhagic shock, renal failure, respiratory failure, need for surgical intervention, blood transfusion and hysterectomy. The cornerstone of effective treatment is rapid diagnosis and intervention in time. However, in a number of cases there is an underestimation of the volume of blood loss which may lead to delay in diagnosis and treatment. The consequences are even graver in women who delivered by a cesarean section, since unlike a normal birth in which the bleeding is external and visible, the bleeding is usually intra-abdominal, and so the delay in diagnosis may be even longer. The Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) is a flexible blood vessel sensitive to intravascular blood volume, and its diameter varies accordingly. Its diameter reflects the pressure in the right atrium, which is a measure of the cardiac preload. A number of studies have shown that the IVC diameter changes, before the variations in vital and clinical signs. Recently, IVC diameter has been assessed as an assessment of intravenous fluid balance in hemodynamically stable patients with a risk of sub-volume shock. The authors concluded that the IVC measurement is a good noninvasive method, compared to catheter insertion into the right atrium, and it is available as a bedside procedure. In obstetrics the use of IVC to determine blood loos was not widely examined and there is no information regarding the use of IVC diameter as a predictor or as a detection method of postpartum bleeding. In this study the investigators aim to examine the correlation between IVC diameter and the volume of postpartum blood loss.

Severe Post Partum Haemorrhage (PPH): A Randomized Trial on Transversal Intervention in 6 French...

Post Partum Haemorrhage

Hypothesis A "multifaceted" intervention program aimed at increasing the responsiveness of care givers, the adequacy of care provided, and the efficacy of organisation of care, in presence of abnormal blood loss in the immediate post partum has more impact on the incidence of severe PPH and on the costs of care than the current methods of dissemination of clinical practice guidelines. Intervention Intervention group. The intervention includes three components: (1) outreach visits with local presentation of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines for management of PPH, and discussion of their applicability in the context of local organisation; (2) during these educational visits, reminders - check list, "PPH emergency case" containing appropriate materials - to be used in case of PPH, will be proposed; (3) finally, cases of severe PPH will be reviewed during peer review sessions organized in each participating unit, to help identifying weaknesses in care provided, and needs for improvement. Control group. The proposed guidelines for management of PPH will be disseminated through the participating perinatal networks; then each unit will be free to implement them at its own convenience. Randomisation procedure The trial follows a cluster randomised trial design. Randomisation of maternity units will be stratified by region, status (public versus private) and size (annual number of deliveries). The stratified design will guarantee the comparability of the two arms of the trial at baseline. Outcome measures The primary outcome is the incidence of severe PPH (number of severe PPH to number of deliveries). A severe PPH is defined as a PPH that was associated with one or more of the following: peripartum haemoglobin drop greater than 4g/dl, blood transfusion, arterial embolisation, surgical procedures such as hysterectomy or arterial ligation, transfer of the mother to intensive care unit, maternal death. Secondary outcomes include the cost of care and the cost/efficacy ratio, and the incidence of adverse effects of uterotonic drugs.

Secondary Postpartum Hemorrhage

Postpartum HemorrhageMaternal Morbidity3 more

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) remains one of the leading causes of maternal mortality and morbidity worldwide, including in France, where it accounts for approximately 20% of maternal mortality. Although numerous studies have examined immediate PPH, very few have explored secondary (also called late) PPH. Moreover, there are no guidelines in France for the management of secondary PPH. Its frequency appears to vary from 0.2% to 3.0% of deliveries. It is, however, difficult to estimate because only severe secondary PPH will lead to hospitalization and the rare publications concern single-center studies. The cause of these secondary hemorrhages is often unknown, due to the lack of routine uterine aspiration. Nonetheless, this aspiration is not always medically justified. The principal objective of this study is thus to establish the incidence of severe late PPH in the general population.

Bedside Assessment of Coagulation in Post-partum Hemorrhage by Thromboelastography (TEG ®6S)

Coagulation Defect; PuerperalPost Partum Hemorrhage2 more

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is one of the leading causes of maternal deaths. Its prognosis is directly influenced by the early diagnosis and treatment of the associated coagulopathy. In this context, fibrinogen concentration is the best predictor of a severe PPH. The medical interest of thromboelastography/elastometry to early detect and guide the rapid correction of coagulopathy in PPH is regularly discussed. The principal aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of a new hemostasis point of care device (thromboelastography - TEG ®6S) for the diagnosis of coagulopathy during PPH. A secondary aim will be to determine the normal values of TEG6S at the end of a normal pregnancy.
