Incidences of Atonic Postpartum Hemorrhage and Related Risk Factors at a Tertiary Hospital in Saudi Arabia

Background: In 2017, there were 295,000 maternal deaths worldwide from preventable causes related to birth. The leading cause of maternal mortality is obstetric hemorrhage. In Saudi Arabia, a paucity of evidence about incidences of atonic Postpartum Hemorrhage (PPH) and related risk factors exists....

description Background: In 2017, there were 295,000 maternal deaths worldwide from preventable causes related to birth. The leading cause of maternal mortality is obstetric hemorrhage. In Saudi Arabia, a paucity of evidence about incidences of atonic Postpartum Hemorrhage (PPH) and related risk factors exists. Therefore, aims were to (a) identify incidences of atonic PPH from 2015 to 2018 (b) determine risk factors of atonic PPH in vaginal birth. Methods: Retrospective chart review with purposive sampling conducted revealed 386 charts, 220 (57%) vaginal birth and 166 (43%) caesarian section (CS). Logistic regression analysis was used. Results: Incidences of atonic PPH were 2.5% from 2015 to 2017, with the rate increasing by 12% from 2017 to 2018. In vaginal birth, significant associations between the severity of blood loss with epidural (F = 6.314, df = 1, p = 0.013), episiotomy (F = 4.38, df = 1, p = 0.038), induction of labor (IOL) (F = 1.224, df = 1, p = 0.004), and Interaction between IOL, AUG, and epidural (F = 7.24, df = 1, p = 0.041) found. Discussion: Increasing rate of atonic PPH confirmed. Epidural, episiotomy, induction of labor, and induction with augmentation are factors associated with severe atonic PPH in vaginal birth.
