Abstract

The aim of the present study was to explore the effectiveness of Bakri intrauterine balloon tamponade (IUBT) in treating severe postpartum hemorrhage (SPPH). A cohort of 198 women with SPPH using IUBT were retrospectively selected. The baseline and maternal outcome characteristics were examined. The results demonstrated that women with SPPH had a high proportion of placenta accrete (53.0%). Bakri IUBT demonstrated a global effectiveness of 84.5% in SPPH treatment, accounting for 82.9% in women with placenta accrete. Compared with women with Bakri failure, women who experienced Bakri success had reduced rates of less use of pre‑/post‑IUBT intervention, blood transfusion, lower genital tract trauma, estimated blood loss (EBL), and a longer indwelling duration (P<0.05). Logistic regression revealed that the pre‑IUBT intervention (OR=3.910; 95% CI: 1.684‑9.079; P=0.002) was positively associated with hemostasis success, while lower genital tract trauma was negatively associated with Bakri success (OR=0.091; 95% CI: 0.009‑0.894; P=0.040). Moreover, women diagnosed with placenta accrete underwent a greater number of transabdominal placed Bakri IUBT and pre‑IUBT interventions than those without placenta accrete (P<0.05). No significant differences were observed in Bakri success, total EBL, pre‑/post‑IUBT EBL, infused volume of IUBT, IUBT indwelling duration, even the rate of hemostasis, lower genital tract trauma, blood transfusion, post‑IUBT intervention, and puerperal fever between women with and without placenta accrete (P>0.05). In conclusion, placenta accrete may be the leading cause of SPPH. Bakri IUBT is an effective and safe measure for SPPH. Pre‑IUBT intervention may be predictive of Bakri's success. The timely use of IUBT during labor may mitigate the impact of risk factors identified on PPH.
