About

Post-partum haemorrhage continues to be a leading cause of maternal mortality and morbidity, accounting for more than 125 000 deaths per year across the world. Prompt diagnosis and effective action are the cornerstones of management and are crucial to prevent fatal maternal haemorrhage.

Considering that published data are extremely limited, the aim of our study will be to evaluate retrospectively the efficacy of Hayman's Haemostatic Suture for the treatment of resistant post-partum hemorrhage resistant to pharmacological therapy.

Post-partum haemorrhage continues to be a leading cause of maternal mortality and morbidity, accounting for more than 125 000 deaths per year across the world. Prompt diagnosis and effective action are the cornerstones of management and are crucial to prevent fatal maternal haemorrhage.

The Hayman suture offers the potential advantages that can be applied fast and easy, a key point in an emergency situation, and avoids having to perform a lower segment hysterotomy when post-partum haemorrhage follows a vaginal delivery, therefore minimising the trauma to the atonic bleeding uterus.

Considering that published data are extremely limited, the aim of our study will be to evaluate retrospectively the efficacy of Hayman's Haemostatic Suture for the treatment of resistant post-partum hemorrhage resistant to pharmacological therapy.
