Prevention and Management of Postpartum Haemorrhage
Nan Schuurmans,Catherine Jane MacKinnon,Carolyn A. Lane,Duncan Etches,Marc-Yvon Arsenault,Irene Colliton,Marie-Jocelyne Martel +6 more
TL;DR: These guidelines provide guidelines to help clinicians prevent and manage excessive bleeding postpartum and establish practices to facilitate the identification of women who may be at particularly high risk of PPH.
Journal ArticleDOI
Guidelines on the management of massive blood loss
TL;DR: This guideline is to provide healthcare professionals with clear guidance on the management of massive blood loss and does not address the specific problems associated with major obstetric haemorrhage; these are being addressed by the Royal College of Obstetricians.

Guideline on the investigation and management of acute transfusion reactions. Prepared by the BCSH Blood Transfusion Task Force.
Hazel Tinegate,Janet Birchall,Alexandra Gray,Richard Haggas,Edwin Massey,Derek Norfolk,Deborah J. Pinchon,Carrock Sewell,Angus Wells,Shubha Allard +9 more
TL;DR: Although acute non‐haemolytic febrile or allergic reactions (ATRs) are a common complication of transfusion and often result in little or no morbidity, prompt recognition and management are essential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell salvage in obstetrics
J. Allam,M. Cox,Steve M. Yentis +2 more
TL;DR: Current evidence supports the use of cell salvage in obstetrics, which is likely to become increasingly commonplace, but more data are required concerning its clinical use.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transfusion-associated hyperkalemia.
TL;DR: This review summarizes the evidence surrounding RBC [K+] levels, effects of irradiation and washing on [K-], the evidence for clinical hyperkalemia and cardiac arrests resulting from transfusion, predictors of post-transfusion hyperKalemia, and their preventative strategies.
