To explore the effectiveness and safety of Five-step rapid hemostasis in the treatment of postpartum hemorrhage with intractable uterine contraction in cesarean section.

Two hundred and eighty postpartum hemorrhage cases with intractable uterine contraction during cesarean section, who were admitted in Jiangxi Maternity and Infant Hospital, were implemented Five-step rapid hemostasis process during July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016; and the hemostatic effect and safety were observed. Twelve cases that completed Five-step rapid hemostasis were followed up for 42 days.

The hemostasis success rate of 280 postpartum hemorrhage cases with intractable uterine contraction in cesarean section was 98.5%(276/280). The 12 cases that underwent Five-step rapid hemostasis were successful in hemostasis. One case had postoperative intra-abdominal hemorrhage, and recovered after conservative treatment for 24 hours. One case was diagnosed undesirable healing of uterine incision by ultrasound at the seventh day after operation, and was recovered at the forty-second day after surgery.

The Five-step rapid hemostasis is the simple, rapid and effective treatment for postpartum hemorrhage with intractable uterine contraction in cesarean section.
