Methods for postpartum uterine hemostasis

ActiveUS12616503B2Balloon catheterMedical devicesPostpartum haemorrhageCol uterin
A method of uterine hemostasis involves inserting a suction line of a postpartum hemorrhage mitigation device through a cesarian incision into the uterine cavity, guiding the suction line through the cervix and into the vagina, positioning an anchoring mechanism of the device adjacent the internal cervical OS of the uterine cavity, closing the cesarian incision to enclose the suction line within the uterine cavity, and connecting the suction line to a negative pressure source that introduces negative pressure to the uterine cavity via the suction line, thereby causing contraction of the uterus and evacuation of fluid from the uterus via the suction line extension. Upon completion of a treatment period, the negative pressure source is disconnected, and the suction line and anchoring mechanism are extracted from the uterus through the cervical canal and the vagina.
