1 POSTPARTUM HEMORRHAGE
Dr. Nahal Nasehi

2 Post partum hemorrhage:
Definition: Estimated blood loss≥500 ml after vaginal birth or ≥1000ml after C/S. The mean blood loss after NVD and C/S is ml and 1000ml respectively and clinicians were more likely to underestimate than overestimate the volume of blood loss.

3 Etiopathogenesis -tone( most common) -trauma -tissue(placenta)
-thrombin(DIC)

4 Post partum hemorrhage:
primary or Early(during first 24h) Secondary or Late(after 24h to 12 weeks)

5 PPH happens in 1-5% of deliveries with death rate of 1 in 100,000 to 1000 birth in high VS low income countries. One of the leading causes of M.M world wide. Most deaths are due to lack of anticipation of excessive bleeding or gross underestimation of blood loss

6 EBL is usually ½ of actual blood loss.
VS After 1000 ml blood loss there is only 3% reduced HCT during 1st hour. In very acute bleeding HCT is at maximum level during bleeding . Urinary output is the most vital sign in Ob. hemorrhage, that should be cc/ h. So, indwelling catheter is mandatory in potentially dangerous bleeding and diuretics is not accepted.

7 Clinical Staging of Hemorrhagic Shock( national guideline)
Severity findings Volume(ml) Volume replacement mild HR<100 RR: Normal(14-20/min) Bp: Normal U/O:30-50 ml/h A bit anxious crystalloid moderate Tachycardia RR:20-30/min Bp: Normal± orthostatic change Oliguria:20-30ml/h anxious sever Tachycardia RR:30-40/min Hypotension Oliguria:5-15ml/h confused Crystalloid & blood Fatal Tachycardia≥ 140 RR>35/min Anuria Confused or lethargic > 2000

8 Caution Risk assessment for every delivery(induced labor, previous PPH, over distention, precipitated labor,…). Determine placental position in repeat c/s by US Scan Use Color Doppler or MRI in suspicious cases Prepare multidisciplinary care if needed

9 Prevention 5-10 u oxytocin im or 10 u in 500ml serum with 10 cc/min or 200mu/min after birth( 5 u slowly iv after C/S?) Clamp the umbilical cord during sec. after birth Controlled traction of placenta

10 Communication Call experienced midwife (in addition to midwife in charge). ● Call obstetric middle grade and alert consultant. ● Call anaesthetic middle grade and alert consultant. ● Alert consultant clinical haematologist on call. ● Alert blood transfusion laboratory. ● Call porters for delivery of specimens/blood. ● Alert one member of the team to record events, fluids, drugs and vital signs.

11 Management two basic goals
Restoration of blood volume and oxygen carrying capacity( One or two main IV line) Definitive treatment of the underlying disorder It is ideal to stabilize patient before definitive therapy is begun, but this is frequently impossible in obstetric hemorrhage so; operation theater, surgeon and anesthesiologist should be informed immediately.

12 nonpharmacologic management
Ask help: midwife obstetrician, anesthesiologist Lie down, keep warm Etiology? Two main iv line Blood test& # match

13 nonpharmacologic management
IV volume Supplemental oxygen by face mask10-15L/min. Pulse oximetry and V/S EKC if needed

14 nonpharmacologic management
Uterine massage Folly catheter CV line? Arrange ICU care or delivery ward after PPH management Fill the flow chart and document I/O

15 Definitive therapy for individual circumstances
Immediate postpartum hemorrhage Uterine massage Direct compression Cleaning uterine cavity Pharmacologic agents Surgical approach

16 Volume replacement therapy
The best agent is blood, if not available, large IV line and rapid crystalloid( 2-3 ml per 1 ml blood loss) up to 3/5 L if the blood is not ready(or colloid fluid1-2 L or hartmann/lactate ringer). FFP should not be used for replacement alone( expensive, needed for specific factors, risk of infection)

17 Dilutional coagulopathy: happens with 5-10 or more RBCU
If platelet is<50,000 with active bleeding and surgery, use platelet( every unit of 50cc, increases platelet up to 5000/ml), no need for ABO compatibility but D Ag must be compatible. Without surgery platelet rarely leads to bleeding. If PT>16" or PTT>60" or fibrinogen level is under 100 mg/dl; FFP( ABO matched)10-15 ml/kg but needs 30 minute for defreezing.(250 cc/unit) Cryoprecipitate( ABO matched) is needed when we have limitation for volume and need all factors at the same time(Hemophilia A, Von Willebrand, decreased fibrinogen or factor XIII).15cc/unit. 10u cryo (2 pack) results in fibrinogen>1gr/L

22 Uterine artery embolization if possible
Bilateral uterine and utero-ovarian artery ligation Hypogastric artery ligation? Total or subtotal hysterectomy

23 Basic measures for MINOR PPH (blood loss 500–1000 ml, no clinical shock
● Intravenous access (14-gauge cannula x 1). ● Commence crystalloid infusion

24 Full protocol for MAJOR PPH (blood loss > 1000 ml and continuing to bleed OR clinical shock
● Assess airway. ● Assess breathing. ● Evaluate circulation ● Oxygen by mask at 10–15 litres/minute. ● Intravenous access (14-gauge cannula x 2, orange cannulae). ● Position flat. ● Keep the woman warm using appropriate available measures. ● Transfuse blood as soon as possible

25 goals of management of massive blood loss is to maintain
● haemoglobin > 8g/dl ● platelet count > 75 x 109/l ● prothrombin < 1.5 x mean control ● activated prothrombin times < 1.5 x mean control ● fibrinogen > 1.0 g/l.

26 It is also important that, once the bleeding is arrested and any coagulopathy is corrected, thrombo- prophylaxis is administered, as there is a high risk of thrombosis. Alternatively, pneumatic compression devices can be used, if thromboprophylaxis is contraindicated in cases of thrombocytopenia.  

27 Anaesthetic management
The anaesthetist needs to able to assess the woman quickly, to initiate or continue resuscitation to restore intravascular volume and provide adequate anaesthesia

28 The presence of cardiovascular instability is a relative contraindication to regional anaesthesia. Blockage of the sympathetic system can potentially lead to worsening hypotension due to haemorrhage. If cardiovascular stability has been achieved and there is no evidence of coagulation failure, regional anaesthesia can be used

38 Secondary PPH is often associated with endometritis
Secondary PPH is often associated with endometritis. When antibiotics are clinically indicated, a combination of ampicillin (clindamycin if penicillin allergic) and metronidazole is appropriate. In cases of endomyometritis (tender uterus) or overt sepsis, then the addition of gentamicin is recommended.

39 Late PPH Incision infection:500mg ampicillin Po q6h+500mg metronidazol Po q8h In renal failure use clindamycin instead of gentamycin Remove retained placenta if needed after US Scan

40 It is generally accepted that secondary PPH is often associated with infection and conventional treatment involves antibiotics and uterotonics. In continuing haemorrhage, insertion of balloon catheter may be effective.

41 summery One of the leading causes of M.M.
EBL is usually ½ of real loss. Never forget indwelling catheter. Remember H.R., B.P, urinary output and consciousness for staging shock. The best agent for replacement is blood, if not accessible, crystalloid( 3/1). Definitive therapy for individual conditions. Other components in specific conditions.

44 Indication for blood component replacement therapy
Indication for use Whole Blood Active bleeding and >25% blood loss Active bleeding and>4Unit RBC used Red Blood Cell (RBC) Hypovolemia and decreased oxygen carrying capacity or >15% blood loss or Hct<24% Platelet <10000 or Surgery and <50000 FFP Coagulation deficiencies with PTT>60, PT>16 or specific factor deficiency Cryoprecipitate Hemophilia A, Von Willebrand, decreased fibrinogen or factor XIII

45 the home-birth setting.
Misoprostol is not as effective as oxytocin but it may be used when the latter is not available, such as A the home-birth setting.

46 When the blood loss reaches about 4
When the blood loss reaches about 4.5 litres (80% of blood volume) and large volumes of replacement fluids have been given, there will be clotting factor defects and blood components should be given to 1 litre of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and 10 units of cryoprecipitate (two packs) may be given empirically in the face of relentless bleeding, while awaiting the results of coagulation studies

47 Surgical measures should be undertaken if there is excessive or continuing bleeding, irrespective of ultrasound findings.

48 A multidisciplinary approach to treatment should ensure that everyone knows how to work together to ensure prompt and efficient treatment in such an emergency.
