Abstract
Considering the effective treatment of postpartum hemorrhage, intrauterine balloon tamponed can apply pressure from the inside of the uterus, and uterine compression suture can apply pressure from the outside of the uterus. Although combining the two methods can enhance the effectiveness of hemostasis, there is a paucity of studies reporting on outcome. The aim of this study was to report a surgical protocol for postpartum hemorrhage by intrauterine balloon tamponing combined with mid-section loop ligation and its subsequent effects on the uterus. Medical records was conducted to identify pregnancies complicated by postpartum hemorrhage following cesarean section, which occurred at a single hospital between February 2021 and May 2022. This study involved the comparison and correlation of surgical duration, hemorrhage loss, blood loss, perioperative outcomes, hospital stay, and uterine recovery. A total of 74 pregnancies were analyzed, with 30 cases assigned to the study group, which received intrauterine balloon tamponade combined with mid-section loop ligation, and 44 cases assigned to the control group, which received intrauterine balloon tamponade alone. The loop ligation group demonstrated a significant advantage over the control group in terms of shorter duration of surgery and reduced postoperative bleeding. The addition of mid-section loop ligation enhances the hemostatic efficacy of intrauterine balloon tamponade, resulting in a shorter procedural duration. This combined technique offers a novel approach to managing postpartum hemorrhage.
