MINOR PPH (blood loss 500â1000 ml, no
clinical shock):
īŽ Intravenous access (14-G cannula x 1).
īŽ Commence crystalloid infusion.
īŽ Consider venepuncture (20 ml) for:
Group and screen
Full blood count
Coagulation screen including fibrinogen
īŽ Pulse and blood pressure recording every 15
minutes.
17. Full protocol for MAJOR PPH (blood loss >
1000 ml and continuing to bleed OR clinical
shock):
īŽ Assess
Airway.
Breathing.
Circulation
īŽ Oxygen by mask at 10â15 litres/minute.
īŽ Intravenous access (14-gauge cannula x 2, orange
cannulae).
īŽ Position flat.
īŽ Keep the woman warm using appropriate available
measures.
18. īŽ Transfuse blood as soon as possible.
īŽ Until blood is available, Infuse up to 3.5
litres of warmed Crystalloid Hartmannâs
solution (2 litres) and or Colloid (1â2 litres)
as rapidly as required.
īŽ The best equipment available should be
used to achieve RAPID WARMED
infusion of fluids.
19. Fluid Therapy and Blood ProductsFluid Therapy and Blood Products
īŽ Crystalloid Up to 2 litres Hartmannâs solution
īŽ Colloid Up to 1â2 litres colloid until blood
arrives
īŽ Blood If crossmatched blood is still
unavailable, give uncrossmatched
group-specific blood OR give âO RhD
negativeâ blood
īŽ Fresh Frozen Plasma 4 units for every 6 units of red cells
or PT/ APTT > 1.5 x normal
(12â15 ml/kg or total 1 litre)
īŽ Platelets concentrates if PLT count < 50 x 109
īŽ Cryoprecipitate If fibrinogen < 1 g/l
Upto 1 litre of FFP and 10 units of Cryoprecipitate can be
given in case of relentless bleeding.
20. Main Therapeutic GoalsMain Therapeutic Goals
īŽ Main therapeutic goals of management of
massive blood loss is to maintain:
īŽ haemoglobin > 8g/dl
īŽ platelet count > 75 x 109/l
īŽ prothrombin < 1.5 x mean control
īŽ activated prothrombin times < 1.5 x mean
control
īŽ fibrinogen > 1.0 g/l.
21. Recombinant Factor VIIRecombinant Factor VII
īŽ In the face of life-threatening PPH, and in
consultation with a haematologist, rFVIIa may
be used as an adjuvant
īŽ Dose is 90 micrograms/kg, repeated in the
absence of clinical response within 15â30
minutes.
īŽ Fibrinogen should be above 1g/l and platelets
greater than 20 x 109/l before rFVIIa is given
22. MONITOR / INVESTIGATEMONITOR / INVESTIGATE
īŽ Consider venepuncture (20 ml) for:
īŽ Crossmatch (4 units minimum)
īŽ full blood count
īŽ coagulation screen including fibrinogen
īŽ renal and liver function for baseline.
īŽ Monitor temperature every 15 minutes.
īŽ Continuous pulse, blood pressure recording
and respiratory rate (using oximeter,
electrocardiogram and automated blood pressure
recording).
īŽ Foley catheter to monitor urine output.
23. īŽ Consider arterial line monitoring (once
appropriately experienced staff available for
insertion).
īŽ Consider transfer to ITU once the bleeding is
controlled or monitoring at high dependency unit
on delivery suite, if appropriate.
īŽ Recording of parameters on a flow chart
such as the modified obstetric early warning
system charts.
īŽ Documentation of fluid balance, blood,
blood products and procedures.
