Background: Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is an unpredictable obstetric emergency that requires a multidisciplinary approach. Bakri balloon tamponade (BBT) is recommended when PPH does not respond to medical treatment. Nowadays few published studies have performed a multivariate analysis to determine the variables independently associated with BBT failure. Methods: Our study purpose was to determine the variables independently associated with BBT failure: first, in a large single-centre cohort study between 2010 and 2020, and second, in a systematic literature review using Medline and the Cochrane Library. Maternal and perinatal variables, PPH characteristics, technique-related variables and complications were recorded in the case series study, comparing between successful and failed BBT patients. Study characteristic and variables significantly associated with BBT failure were recorded in the systematic review. All studies used a logistic regression test. Results: The case series included 123 patients. The profile of these patients were primiparous, with vaginal delivery and a full-term new-born. BBT was successful in 81.3% of cases. Five studies were included in the systematic review, providing data from 551 patients. BBT was successful in 79.5% of cases. Conclusions: Maternal age, caesarean delivery, ≥7 red blood cells units (RBCU) transfused and curettage before BBT insertion, history of caesarean section, pre-pregnancy obesity, anteriorly placed placenta, placenta accreta, caesarean delivery, estimated blood loss before insertion of BBT, long operation duration, and coagulopathy were independent factors for BBT failure.

Objectives: To determine the frequency of postpartum haemorrhage in obeseprimigravid women. Study Design: Case series study. Period: Six months was conductedfrom 1st October 2014 to 30 March 2015. Setting: Department of gynecology and obstetricsat Liaquat University Hospital Jamshoro. Patients and Methods: All the primigravid obese(≥30kg/m2) ladies 18 to 35 years of age with 37-42 weeks of gestational age were evaluate forthe occurrence of PPH by estimating blood loss of greater than 500 ml of blood following vaginaldelivery or 1000 ml of blood loss following caesarean section. All data was entered and analyzedthrough statistical package SPSS version 17, the chi-square statistical test was applied and thep-value ≤0.05 was considered as statistical significant. Results: Total 203 primigravid obeseladies were studies, the age group was analyzed which shows that in age group between 18-25years were 105(52.00%) women, in age group of 26-30 years were 62(30.69%) women and agegroup of 30 years and above were 35 (17.31%) women. The modes of delivery were evaluatedwhich shows that 66.5% women underwent C-section and 33.4% women had normal vaginaldelivery. The PPH was observed in 34.97% patients (70.4% with C-Section and 29.6 with NVD).Conclusion: Obesity carries a significant increased risk of complications during pregnancyand maternal risks during labour are PPH and more frequent C-section and nulliparous obesewomen have twofold high risk for PPH

Objetivo: Determinar los agentes microbianos más frecuentes en pacientes de UCI con diagnóstico de sinusitis nosocomial en el Hospital de San José, período de dos años. Diseño: Estudio observacional tipo serie de casos. Materiales y métodos: Se incluyeron pacientes mayores de 18 años con una estancia hospitalaria mayor a 48 horas, que desarrollaron sinusitis nosocomial de acuerdo a los criterios de los Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Uso de dos técnicas: punción y lavado de seno maxilar. Resultados: 19 pacientes que cumplen los criterios de sinusitis nosocomial. Edad promedio 55 años, predominio sexo masculino. El 94.7% tuvo sonda orogástrica, 89.5% intubación orotraqueal y 89.5% ventilación mecánica. Hubo aislamiento polimicrobiano de gram positivos, gram negativos, anaerobios y hongos. La mortalidad en UCI fue 32%. Conclusiones: Se presenta una adecuada sensibilidad al tratamiento con vancomicina y piperacilina tazobactam en esta patología. El rendimiento diagnóstico es igual al realizar lavado y punción del seno maxilar.Objetive: To determine the microbial agents on UCI patients who have beendiagnosed with nosocomial sinusitis at the San Jose Hospital, (Bogota, Colombia) in a two-year period. Design: Case series study. Materials and methods: Patients who were older than 18-year olds, with a hospitalization longer than 48 hours who developed nosocomial sinusitis, according to the criteria established by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) were included. Two techniques were employed for data collection: puncture and maxillary sinus wash. Results: 19 patients fulfill the criteria requirements for nosocomial sinusitis. Average age was 55 years old. Population mostly was composed by male individuals. 94.7% had a gastric tube intervention; 89.5% had tracheal intubation 89.5% mechanical ventilation. Polymicrobial isolation with gram positive, gram negative, anaerobic and fungi were identified. Mortality in critical care unites was 32%. Conclusions: An adequate sensitivity to treatment with vancomycin and piperacillin tazobactam was evidenced in this pathology.To perform a washing or maxillary sinus puncture had the same efficiency fordiagnosing this disease.
