Antepartum Hemorrhage

Obstetrics & Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University

Xu Huan

Page 4: If you are a doctor

Rationale (why we care…)

• 4-5% of pregnancies complicated by 3rd trimester bleeding

• Immediate evaluation needed• Significant threat to mother & fetus

(consider physiologic increase in uterine blood flow)• Consider causes of maternal & fetal death• Priorities in management (triage!)

Page 5: If you are a doctor

Objectives We will be able to:

• Describe the approach to the patient with third-trimester bleeding

• Compare symptoms, physical findings, and diagnostic methods that differentiate bleeding etiologies

• Describe management and delivery options for 3rd trimester bleeding etiologies

• Describe potential maternal and fetal morbidity & mortality

• Describe management of postpartum hemorrhage• Apply knowledge in the discussion of clinical case

scenarios

Vaginal Bleeding: Differential diagnosis

• Common:• Abruption, previa, preterm labor, labor

• Less common: • Uterine rupture, fetal vessel rupture, lacerations/le

sions, cervical ectropion, polyps, vasa previa, bleeding disorders

• Unknown• NOT vaginal bleeding!!!

(happens more than you think!)

Page 7: If you are a doctor

Other Etiologies

• Cervicitis• infection • Cervical erosion • Trauma • Cervical cancer • Foreign body • Bloody show/labor

Page 8: If you are a doctor

Perinatal mortality and morbidity

• Previa• Decreased mortality from 30% to 1% over last 60 years• Now emergent cesarean delivery often possible• Risk of preterm delivery

• Abruption• Perinatal mortality rate 35%• Accounts for 15% of 3rd trimester stillbirths• Risk of preterm delivery• Most common cause of DIC in pregnancy

• Massive hemorrhage --> risk of ARF, Sheehan’s, etc.

Placenta previa

Page 10: If you are a doctor

Definition

After 28 pregnant weeks placental implantation over the cervical os or in the lower uterine segment

It constitutes an obstruction of descent of the presenting part

Main cause of obstetrical hemorrhage(20%) Incidence

0.24%-1.57% (our country).

Page 11: If you are a doctor

Risk factors & Associations

• Prior cesarean delivery/myomectomy• Prior previa (4-8% recurrence risk) • Previous abortion • Increased parity • Multiple pregnancy• Advanced maternal age • Abnormal presentation • Smoking

Page 12: If you are a doctor

Etiology

Causes1. Endometrial abnormality1) Scared or poorly vascularized endometrium in the c

orpus.2) Curettage, Delivery, CS and infection of endometri

um2. Placental abnormality Large placenta (multiple pregnancy), succenturiate

lobe3. Delayed development of trophoblast

Page 13: If you are a doctor

Classification

Complete

placenta previa

Partrial

placenta previa

Marginal placenta previa

Page 14: If you are a doctor
Page 15: If you are a doctor

Manifestation(1) Symptoms

• Painless vaginal bleeding (70%)• Spontaneous,After coitus• The most characteristic symptom• late pregnancy (after the 28th week) and delivery• Characteristics: sudden, painless and profuse

• Contractions• No symptoms

• Routine ultrasound finding

The mean gestational age of first bleed: 30 wks 1/3 before 30 weeks

Page 16: If you are a doctor

Manifestation(2)

Anemia or shock

repeated bleeding→ anemia

heavy bleeding→ shock Abnormal fetal position

a high presenting part

breech presentation (often)

Page 17: If you are a doctor

Physical Findings

• Bleeding on speculum exam• Cervical dilation

• Bleeding a sx related to PTL/normal labor• Abnormal position/lie• Non-reassuring fetal status • If significant bleeding:

• Tachycardia • Postural hypertension• Shock

Page 18: If you are a doctor

Diagnosis(1)

History

1. Painless hemorrhage

2. At late pregnancy or delivery

3. History of curettage or CS

Page 19: If you are a doctor

Diagnosis(1)

Signs

1. Abdominal findings

1) Uterus is soft, relaxed and nontender.

2) Contraction may be palpated.

3) A high presenting part can’t be pressed into the pelvic inlet. Breech presentation

4) Fetal heart tones maybe disappear (shock or abruption)

Page 20: If you are a doctor

Diagnosis

Speculum examination

Rule out local causes of bleeding, such as cervical erosion or polyp or cancer.

Limited vaginal examination (seldom used)

Palpation of the vaginal fornices to learn if there is an intervening bogginess between the fornix and presenting part.

Rectal examination is useless and dangerous

Page 21: If you are a doctor

Limited vaginal examination

Page 22: If you are a doctor

Diagnosis(1)

• Ultrasound• abdominal 95% accurate to detect• transvaginal (TVUS) will detect almost all

• consider what placental location a TVUS may find that was missed on abdominal

• MRI• Check the placenta and membrane after delivery remember: no digital exams unless previa RULED O

UT!

Page 23: If you are a doctor
Page 24: If you are a doctor

Diagnosis

Before 20 weeks’ gestation,4-6% have some degree of placenta previa on ultrasonic examination

90% of these resolving by the third trimester Only 10% of complete placenta

Page 25: If you are a doctor

Differential Diagnosis

Placental abruption

vagina bleeding with pain, tenderness of uterus. vasa previa

In cases of velamentous cord insertion fetal vessels cover cervical os

Abnormality of cervix

cervical erosion or polyp or cancer

Page 26: If you are a doctor

Page 27: If you are a doctor

Effects

obstetrical hemorrhage Placenta accreta, increta, and percreta Anemia and infection Premature labor or fetal death or fetal distress

Page 28: If you are a doctor

Treatments

Expectant therapy

1. Rest: keep the bed

2. Controlling the contraction: MgSO4

3. Treatment of anemia

4. Preventing infection

Page 29: If you are a doctor

Treatments

Termination of pregnancy1. CS1) total placenta previa (36th week), Partial placenta pr

evia (37th week) and heavy bleeding with shock2) Preventing postpartum hemorrhage: pitocin and PG3) Hysterectomy: Placenta accreta or uncontroled blee

Treatments

2. Vaginal delivery

Marginal placenta previa

Vaginal bleeding is limited

Page 31: If you are a doctor

Management

• Initial evaluation/diagnosis• Observe/admit to L&D• IV access, routine (maybe serial) labs • Continuous electronic fetal monitoring

• Continuous at least initally• May re-evaluate later if stable, no further bleeding

• Delivery???

Page 32: If you are a doctor

Management

• Less than 36 wks gestation - expectant management if stable, reassuring• Bed rest (negotiable)• No vaginal exams (not negotiable) • Steroids for lung maturation (<32 wks)• Possible mgmt at home after 1st bleed

70% will have recurrent vaginal bleeding before 36 completed weeks requiring emergent cesarean

Page 33: If you are a doctor

Management

• 36+ weeks gestation• Cesarean delivery if positive fetal lung maturity by amnioc

entesis• Delivery vs expectant mgmt if fetal lung immaturity• Schedule cesarean delivery at 37 weeks• Discussion/counseling regarding cesarean hysterectomy

Note: given stable maternal and reassuring fetal status, none of these management guidelines are absolute (this is why Obstetrics is so much fun!)

Page 34: If you are a doctor

Other Considerations

• Placenta accreta, increta, percreta• Cesarean delivery may be necessary• History of uterine surgery increases risk• Must consider these diagnoses if previa present• Could require further evaluation, imaging (MRI cons

idered now)

NOT the delivery you want to do at 2 am

Placental abruption

Page 39: If you are a doctor

Definition

• abruptio placentae or placental abruption: placental separation from its implantation site before delivery (the normally implanted placenta )

• Incidence • complicates 0.5-1.5% of all pregnancies • recurrence risk

• 10% after 1st episode • 25% after 2nd episode

Risk factors & Associations

Cocaine maternal hypertension abdominal trauma smoking prior abruption preeclampsia multiple gestation

prolonged PROM uterine decompression short umbilical cord chorioamnionitis multiparity

Page 45: If you are a doctor
Page 46: If you are a doctor

Symptoms

• Vaginal bleeding • Abdominal or back pain• Uterine contractions • Uterine tenderness

Page 47: If you are a doctor

Physical Findings

• Vaginal bleeding• Uterine contractions • Hypertonus • Tetanic contractions • Non-reassuring fetal status or demise• Can be concealed hemorrhage

Page 48: If you are a doctor
Page 49: If you are a doctor

Laboratory Findings

• Anemia• may be out of proportion to observed blood lo

ss

• DIC• Can occur in up to 10% (30% if “severe”)• First, increase in fibrin split products • Followed by decrease in fibrinogen

Page 50: If you are a doctor

Diagnosis

• Clinical scenario• Physical exam

• Not digital pelvic exams until rule out previa• Careful speculum exam

• Ultrasound• Can evaluate previa• Not accurate to diagnose abruption

Page 51: If you are a doctor

Management

• Physical exam• Continuous electronic fetal monitoring • Ultrasound

• Assess viability, gestational age, previa, fetal position/lie

• Expectant management• vaginal vs cesarean delivery

• Available anesthesia, OR team for stat cesarean delivery
