Case study series (n=65)
- Objective: to compare a 26 month period before and a 38 month period after the introduction of CELOX™ PPH in the treatment of PPH
- Women with PPH were treated by uterine packing with CELOX™ PPH through the hysterotomy in caesarean delivery, or transvaginally
- CELOX™ PPH is a viable option in the treatment of PPH
- After the introduction of CELOX™ PPH postpartum hysterectomies were significantly reduced (p=0.023)
- CELOX™ PPH can be safely used after both vaginal and caesarean section
- No complications related to CELOX™ PPH treatment were observed
- The use of CELOX™ PPH is inexpensive
