ABSTRACT
Background: The association between coagulation
profile and postpartum hemorrhage (PH) is still debated.
Objective: To determine the association between
hemostatic profile and PH in women with cesarean
operation (CO).
Methods: We included 92 patients with PH (cases) and
184 without (controls), patients were attended during
2014, at one hospital of the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro
Social in Mérida, Yucatán. Demographic, clinical and
laboratory data including prothrombin time (PT), activated
partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), platelet count (PLC),
and fibrinogen concentration were compared among
cases and controls using a binary logistic regression
model (LRM), from which odd ratios (OR), and 95%
confidence intervals (95% CI), were obtained.
Results: According to the bivariate comparison, in the
LRM categorical data such as parity, any type of
hypertensive comorbidity, type of anesthesia, and
categorized aPTT (‹ 38 vs. ≥ 38 seconds), and one
continuous variable (gestational age) were included.
Having some hypertensive comorbidity (OR 3.55, 95%
CI: 1.95-6.47), type of anesthesia (regional anesthesia,
OR 0.27, 95% CI: 0.13-0.55) and aPTT (‹ 38 seconds,
OR 0.26, 95% CI: 0.10-0.66) were all statistically
significant. Categorized PT, platelet count and fibrinogen
concentration, were not statistically significant.
Conclusions: In this sample, having some hypertensive
comorbidity increased risk of PH more than three times,
while regional anesthesia and aPTT ‹ 38 seconds
reduced risk in 73% and 74%, respectively. Neither
platelet count, nor fibrinogen concentration, or the PT
categories modified risk of PH.
