Reproductive hemostasis: A global approach to a global
challenge
A hemostatic change in women through their reproductive lifetime
is emerging as an issue of global importance. No wonder, as
obstetric hemorrhage remains a major cause of maternal mortality in
both developed and developing countries. Thrombophilias and
pulmonary embolisms are a threat to maternal and fetal
well-being.
Hemostasis and Thrombosis in Obstetrics & Gynecology
provides a framework for assessing and managing hemostatic
disorders in women. Written by an international team, it provides
globally applicable guidelines for obstetric hematology. The
practical approach to clinical management includes:
* Hematologic changes in pregnancy
* Red cell disorders
* Platelet disorders
* Inherited and acquired thrombophilia
* Inherited bleeding disorders
* Postpartum hemorrhage
Blood and bleeding disorders in women can be managed by
obstetrician-gynecologists or hematologists, separately or
together. Hemostasis and Thrombosis in Obstetrics &
Gynecology provides specialists from both disciplines with the
information necessary to manage their patients effectively.
