Summary
Recurrent postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) occurred due to localized uterine atony. Timely intervention requires effective analgesia, especially for intrauterine device placement during obstetric hemorrhage.
Area of Science:
- Obstetrics and Gynecology
- Maternal Health
- Hemorrhage Management
Background:
- Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a major cause of maternal mortality.
- Management is complex due to varied causes and delayed hypovolemia signs.
- Procedural difficulties with analgesia can complicate PPH treatment.

Diagnosing Pulmonary EmbolismDiagnosing pulmonary embolism (PE) involves clinical assessment and advanced imaging tests. The preferred diagnostic tool is the spiral (helical) CT scan or CT angiography (CTA), which uses intravenous contrast media to visualize the pulmonary vasculature and identify emboli.A ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan is an alternative for patients unable to receive contrast media. This scan includes both perfusion and ventilation scanning. Perfusion scanning involves...
