Internet presentations are common tools for better medical communication and better scientific work. Meanwhile a great number of gynecological and obstetrical institutions present data via the world wide web within a wide range of quality and performance. Specific HTML editors offer quick and easy presentations, but only advanced internet techniques enable interesting multimedia presentations. N-tier applications are the future standard and we must integrate them in general informatical systems. New Concepts, actual tools and general problems will be discussed and new principles similar to actual E commerce techniques are able to solve our special medical demands.

The consumption of coagulation and fibrinolysis factors induced by delivery of the child and detachment of the placenta can be reduced after administration of aprotinin given at the latest 10 - 18 min before partus. This could be used in therapy and prophylactic treatment in high-risk patients (e. g., pre-eclampsia, HELLP syndrome, etc.).
