Conducta obstétrica en hemorragia post parto y atonía uterina.

This case study will deal with a patient presenting postpartum hemorrhage and uterine atony. This was done with the purpose of identifying the main risk factors associated with this obstetric behavior. Postpartum hemorrhage is one of the most feared obstetric difficulties and is one of the three leading causes of maternal mortality in the world. Globally it is defined as blood loss greater than 500 ml after vaginal delivery or 1,000 ml after cesarean section. Early postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) occurs during the first 24 hours after delivery and is usually the most severe. Causes of PPH include uterine atony, trauma/lacerations, retained products of conception, and coagulation disorders, with atony being the most common. It is essential to know the populations at risk and the triggering factors, since this pathology is highly preventable and we must be prepared to face this type of complications. Diagnosis is clinical and treatment should include general life support measures and other more specific measures of an etiological nature. Favorably, it is avoidable in most cases if an adequate strategy of active and systematic prevention is continued in the delivery phase of all deliveries. It is essential to know the populations at risk and the triggering factors, since this pathology is highly preventable and we must be prepared to face this type of complications.
