Severe PHH. Part 2 - Learnings from clinical practice

In this podcast, Prof. Andra H. James (Professor Emeritus of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Division Maternal Fetal Medicine, Duke University Hospital, Durham, North Carolina, US) and Dr Maria Elisa Mancuso (Senior Haematology Consultant at the Center for Thrombosis and Hemorrhagic Diseases of IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy) discuss various treatment options for severe postpartum haemorrhage (also called PPH). Experts discuss what causes PPH and how to determine the risk before and during labour with algorithms and other helpful tools. The discussion moves to when haematologic expertise is required and how collaboration can be optimized to provide the best care for patients. Furthermore, the experts share their learnings from clinical practice through discussion of specific patient cases, including patients with and without underlying bleeding disorders, as well as where haemostatic agents fit in the protocol.
