Popis: | Obstetrical hemorrhage continues to be an important contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality in the USA. Although preventable, it is still the 5th leading cause of maternal death, often due to factors associated with a delay in recognition by providers and/or delay in treatment. We cannot overlook the fact that for every maternal death due to hemorrhage, there are at least 100 women who suffer severe morbidity. It is known that implementing hemorrhage-specific protocols can improve outcomes related to this condition. This review will update readers in early detection and preparation, diagnosis, and treatment of obstetric hemorrhage while highlighting the different institution-specific protocols, cognitive aids, and drills. |
