MODERN VIEWS ABOUT PREDICTIONS OF POSTPARTUM BLEEDINGS

Abstract

Postpartum hemorrhage is a pressing problem today, with a growing tendency. There is a trend of increasing incidence over time, not only in developing countries, but also in countries with high levels of income and resources that contribute significant amounts to the development and functioning of the health system, which is the cause of scientific debate throughout the world. Risk factors include: low hemoglobin level before birth, older maternal age, first birth, prolonged duration of the first and second stage of labor, high birth weight of the newborn, placentation abnormalities, surgical vaginal birth, cesarean section, episiotomy, placenta defect. The review briefly outlines the main risk factors for postpartum hemorrhage, displays new data on the connection between types of assisted reproductive technologies and postpartum hemorrhage, and discusses prospects for researching the problem. Establishing a link between assisted reproductive technologies and postpartum hemorrhage explains the increase in the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage in developed countries. It is necessary to continue research into obstetric risks following the use of assisted reproductive technologies, identifying additional risk categories for complications in order to provide quality medical care and reduce maternal and perinatal losses.
