Abstract

Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is a potentially life-threatening event. In the majority of cases, relatively simple methods are used to avert a disaster, although these are not always employed.[1] Uterine tamponade using intrauterine balloons appears to be an effective tool in the management of PPH. Overall, from the case reports, retrospective[2,3,4] and prospective studies[5,6] 97/106(91.5%) cases were successful when the various balloons have been used. Given that the technology is simple to deploy and with minimal adverse effects, a balloon tamponade method should become a familiar component of existing guidelines for the management of PPH, although not as an isolated form of therapy. It is hoped that this review paper increases the awareness of the various tamponade balloons and contributes to an evidence- based appraisal of its place in the management of PPH.

Keywords: Postpartum Hemorrhage, High Risk & Association.
