Title: Peripartum management of a patient with Glanzmann's thrombasthenia using Thrombelastograph. Author: Monte S, Lyons G. Journal: Br J Anaesth; 2002 May; 88(5):734-8. PubMed ID: 12067020. Abstract: We describe the perioperative management of a 31-yr-old primipara with Glanzmann's thrombasthenia, who required urgent Caesarean delivery at 33 weeks' gestation. Peripartum haemorrhage was inevitable and was pre-empted by transfusion of multiple blood products, the effects of which were monitored by Thrombelastograph. The blood products given are discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
