Studies from Huazhong University of Science and Technology Yield New Information about Placenta Accreta (Efficacy of Bakri Intrauterine Balloon In Managing Postpartum Hemorrhage: a Comparative Analysis of Vaginal and Cesarean Deliveries With...).

A study conducted by researchers at Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Hubei, China, examined the use of Bakri intrauterine balloon tamponade (IUBT) in the treatment of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) in women with and without placenta accreta spectrum disorder (PAS). The study analyzed the outcomes of 198 women who underwent treatment for PPH using IUBT and found that accurate and timely pre-IUBT intervention and Bakri IUBT placement were crucial for controlling PPH, especially in women with PAS. The study highlights the increasing incidence of PAS and the importance of effective interventions for managing PPH in high-risk maternal populations. [Extracted from the article]
