Management of post-partum haemorrhage (PPH) involves the treatment of uterine atony, evacuation of retained placenta or placental fragments, surgery due to uterine or birth canal trauma, balloon tamponade, effective volume replacement and transfusion therapy, and occasionally, selective arterial embolization. This article aims at introducing pregnancy- and haemorrhage-induced changes in coagula...
A healthy 32-year-old female presented with NSTEMI 2 weeks following an uneventful pregnancy and caesarian section. Emergent cardiac catheterization demonstrated a non-stentable coronary artery dissection (Figs. 1 and 2, and Videos 1 and 2). She was treated with CABG (LIMA to LAD) and made an uneventful post-operative recovery. Fig. 1. RAO angiographic view showing the dissected LAD with dilute...
Background Post partum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) can occur between the last trimester of pregnancy or within 5 months post partum, in the absence of any history of heart disease. Although rare, it may become unresponsive to medical treatment and can in such cases, require mechanical support or even a heart transplant. Predicting its evolution is unfortunately not possible. Late gadolinium enhanceme...
OBJECTIVE To describe the use of levosimendan, a novel inotropic agent, for the treatment of post-partum cardiomyopathy (PPCMO). METHODS The authors present the second recorded use of levosimendan for a woman with PPCMO. RESULTS Levosimendan improved cardiac performance which was associated with symptomatic relief and echocardiographic improvement in ventricular function. The patient recove...
The subject of post-partum haemorrhage has often been discussed here and elsewhere, and it would not be easy to import much of novelty into the handling of it; still it is one of such grave importance that the reiteration of truths and facts can scarcely be valueless or profitless. The appalling suddenness of its advent when all seems going fair, the speed with which it kills in some cases, eve...
1. Mothers were followed from 1 month post-partum up to 12 months post-partum to measure changes in their body-weight and triceps skinfold thickness. 2. Overall there was a significant weight loss in the first few months but this levelled off by 7 months. 3. The triceps skinfold increased significantly up to 5 months post-partum and then decreased. 4. These changes in body-weight and skinfold w...
BACKGROUND The early post-partum period is a crucial time for breastfeeding support. Mothers who have physical and emotional support during this period are more likely to be successful in breastfeeding. This study examined the relationship between father involvement and support for breast feeding initiation and duration in first-time mothers. METHODS Overall, 146 women who attended a childbir...
BACKGROUND The course of depression from pregnancy to 1 year post partum and risk factors among mothers and fathers are not known. AIMS (1) To report the longitudinal patterns of depression from the third trimester of pregnancy to 1 year after childbirth; (2) to determine the gender differences between women and their partners in the effect of psychosocial and personal factors on postpartum d...
The risk of manifestations of ischaemic heart disease (IHD) in fertile women is elevated during pregnancy and the post-partum period. With increasing maternal age and a higher prevalence of cardiac risk factors, the incidence of IHD during pregnancy is rising. However, information in the literature is scarce. We therefore performed a retrospective cohort study and systematically reviewed the ov...
BACKGROUND Polymorphic variations in the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTT) moderate the depressogenic effects of tryptophan depletion. After childbirth there is a sharp reduction in brain tryptophan availability, thus polymorphic variations in 5-HTT may play a similar role in the post-partum period. AIMS To study the role of 5-HTT polymorphic variations in mood changes after delivery. METH...
