| local.description.resumo | Postpartum hemorrhage is the world’s leading cause of maternal death and peripartum hysterectomy. • The main causes of postpartum hemorrhage are uterine atony, birth canal trauma, retention of placental re mains and coagulation disorders. • Risk stratification for postpartum hemorrhage optimizes care planning and promotes early adoption of preventive measures. • Bleeding control within the first hour of diagnosis (“golden hour”) is the most effective measure for treating postpartum hemorrhage. • The shock index is the clinical method of choice for estimating blood loss and a good parameter to guide the need for blood transfusion. • The main drugs used in pharmacological therapy for postpartum hemorrhage are oxytocin, ergot derivatives, misoprostol and tranexamic acid. • In uterine atony with pharmacological therapy failure, the intrauterine balloon tamponade should precede the surgical approach. • The non-pneumatic anti-shock garment is useful in postpartum hemorrhage with hemodynamic instability and enables continuity of treatment and patient transfers | |
