No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The incidence of severe post-partum hemorrhage has been increasing in developed countries. The reason for this is at least partially unknown. Surgical techniques, holistic treatment protocols and strategies in blood product administration may have changed patient outcome and, for example the incidence of transfusion related side effects. A retrospective analysis of the whole cohort of parturients in 2009-2015 in Tampere University Hospital will be made to assess the risk factors for severe PPH (ie. estimated blood loss more than 1500ml during delivery) and examine the possible change in blood transfusion strategies and its effect on bleeding (for example, implementation of massive transfusion protocol, amount of blood products used, effect of red blood cell:fresh-frozen plasma ratio, use of pharmacological agents for coagulation management, introduction of new angiological and surgical techniques etc.) and complications, laboratory parameters and patient outcome.
