Case study series (n=19)
- Assessment of the use of CELOX™ PPH in the treatment of PPH
- Women with PPH were treated with uterine packing using CELOX™ PPH either through the hysterotomy, in the case of caesarean delivery or transvaginally
- In all but one case (18/19) bleeding was halted and no further intervention was required
- Over equivalent 18-month periods and with a comparable number of births (3822 vs. 4077) before and after the introduction of CELOX™ PPH, the rate of peripartum hysterectomies was reduced by 75% (p = .044)
