Abstract

Patient blood management is an evidence-based concept that seeks to minimize blood loss by maintaining adequate hemoglobin levels and optimizing hemostasis during surgery. Since the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, patient blood management has gained significance due to fewer blood donations and reduced amounts of blood stored for transfusion. Recently, the prevalence of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), as well as the frequency of PPH-associated transfusions, has steadily increased. Therefore, proper blood transfusion is required to minimize PPH-associated complications while saving the patient’s life. Several guidelines have attempted to apply this concept to minimize anemia during pregnancy and bleeding during delivery, prevent bleeding after delivery, and optimize recovery methods from anemia. This study systematically reviewed various guidelines to determine blood loss management in pregnant women.
