Summary
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is the top reason for maternal deaths in China. The four major
causes of PPH include uterine atony, genital tract laceration, placenta factors and systemic
medical disorders (including inherited and acquired coagulopathy). Management of PPH contains
the application of uterotonic agents, using hemostasis agents, transfusion of blood component
products, conservative procedures (intrauterine packing or balloon tamponade, compression
sutures, vascular ligation and uterine artery embolization using sponges), and even
hysterectomy.
The Bakri Balloon has attained its efficacy and popularity ever since it was invented by
Doctor YN. Bakri. Although it is recommended by many countries as a routine procedure for PPH
management, the Bakri Balloon is not yet a first choice in China due to lack in clinical data
of preventive usage.
The aim of this study is to prove the efficacy and safety of the Bakri Balloon in early
management of PPH.
