Product performance structure and composition
Postpartum hemostatic balloon consists of balloon catheter assembly, rapid infusion assembly, two-way valve, check valve and injector. This product is provided in aseptic condition, and has been treated with ethylene oxide. Disposable use.
Core action mechanism
1. Physical compression hemostasis. The balloon is placed in the uterine cavity and injected with normal saline to expand, resulting in hydrostatic pressure from the inside out, which directly compresses the blood vessels and bleeding wounds of the uterine wall and blocks blood flow.
2.Promote uterine contraction. The expansion stimulation of the balloon to the myometrium can reflexively cause uterine contraction, further close the broken end of blood vessels, and form a double hemostasis effect of "packing+uterine contraction".
Uniformly distributed pressure compared with traditional gauze packing, the balloon fits the anatomical shape of uterine cavity better, and the pressure distribution is uniform and can be quantitatively adjusted to avoid ischemic injury.
Main clinical application scenarios
1.Control of acute massive hemorrhage: It is suitable for intractable postpartum hemorrhage caused by uterine atony and placental factors, which can quickly stabilize vital signs and buy time for follow-up treatment (such as interventional embolization or surgery).
2.Reduce traumatic intervention: When the success rate is high, open surgery or hysterectomy can be avoided, which is helpful to preserve the reproductive function of parturient.
3.Reduce the need for blood transfusion: Timely use can significantly reduce blood loss and reduce the risk of hemorrhagic shock and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).
Key considerations
1.Indwelling time: Usually 24 ~ 72 hours, it is necessary to closely monitor the amount of bleeding and signs of infection, and use antibiotics routinely and preventively during this period.
2.Management of discomfort: Abdominal distension or compressive pain may occur after implantation, which can be tolerated by most patients. If necessary, analgesic drugs can be used according to the doctor's advice.
3.Taboos and limitations: If severe coagulation dysfunction or laceration of birth canal is not sutured, other treatment methods should be combined, and simple balloon packing may not be effective.
Postpartum hemostatic balloon is an important line of defense for obstetric first aid, and the specific plan needs to be decided by the doctor according to the comprehensive evaluation of bleeding causes and maternal status.

Lithotripsy is recognized as the "gold standard". Whether it is hard oxalate calcium stones, tough cystine stones, or oddly shaped antler-shaped stones, holmium laser can efficiently crush them; combined with the Moses pulse modulation technology, the displacement of stones is smaller and the efficiency is higher. It can even "use one light for multiple purposes" - during lithotripsy, it cuts open the inflammatory polyps surrounding the stones, treats ureteral stenosis, and solves multiple problems in one surgery.
