Condom Uterine Tamponade A Revolutionary Invention to Control Postpartum Haemorrhage
Journal Title: International Journal of Surgery & Surgical Techniques - Year 2024, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is the most challenging situation faced by obstetricians. It remains the primary cause of maternal mortality in low & low-middle-income countries. In some South Asian countries, such as Bangladesh, many obstetrics patients were dying from excessive bleeding just after giving birth a few decades ago. Many of them had to undergo hysterectomy (a surgical procedure to remove the uterus), sacrificing the further opportunities of giving birth, just to prevent this uncontrolled bleeding. To overcome this situation, Dr. Sayeba Akhter invented a method of Condom Tamponade in 2000.
