Hemostatic Technique During Cesarean Section

Although there are various causes of hemorrhage at the time of cesarean delivery, they are largely divided into bleeding from the separated surface of the placenta and atonic bleeding. A combination of hemostatic techniques such as balloon tamponade, compression suture, arterial ligation, transarterial embolization (TAE), and hysterectomy is important for successful hemostasis. When choosing a technique, features of local hemostatic techniques and vascular blockage techniques may need to be considered. Normal blood coagulation function is also important for achieving successful hemostasis.
