Intrauterine Vacuum-Induced Hemorrhage-Control Device for Rapid Treatment of Postpartum Hemorrhage

Abstract

Intrauterine vacuum-induced hemorrhage control may provide an effective treatment option for postpartum hemorrhage that has the potential to prevent severe maternal morbidity and mortality.

Vacuum-Induced Tamponade for Treatment of Postpartum Hemorrhage

“…A subsequent multicenter study of 106 women with uterine atony treated with this device reported a treatment success rate of 94%. 9 The findings of our observational study are in line with these results, showing a success rate of 86% in women with uterine atony in the overall study period and even 100% in women with uterine atony in the latter 2 years. However, in contrast to the latter study, we did not use vacuum-induced tamponade exclusively in women with atony.…”

Profile of the Jada® System: the vacuum-induced hemorrhage control device for treating abnormal postpartum uterine bleeding and postpartum hemorrhage

“…In the trial, eight adverse events were reported as possibly related to the device or procedure, all of which were anticipated with the introduction of an intrauterine device. These events included endometritis (n = 4), presumed endometritis (n = 1), disruption of vaginal laceration repair (n = 1), bacterial vaginosis (n = 1), and vaginal candidiasis (n = 1) [10]. Additionally, there were no reports in the trial of uterine perforation or lower genital tract tissue injury in relation to the device or procedure.…”
