Successful Management of High-Risk Pregnancy: Placenta Previa with Severe PPH
High-risk pregnancies require timely diagnosis, expert care, and a well-coordinated medical team. One such challenging case involved placenta previa complicated by severe postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), which was successfully managed under the care of Dr. Rashmi Baliyan, Senior Consultant – Obstetrics & Gynaecology, New Delhi.
Understanding Placenta Previa
Placenta previa is a condition in which the placenta partially or completely covers the cervix. This can lead to severe bleeding during pregnancy or at the time of delivery, making it a high-risk obstetric condition that requires close monitoring and planned delivery in a well-equipped medical facility.
What is Postpartum Hemorrhage (PPH)?
Postpartum hemorrhage refers to excessive bleeding after childbirth, which can be life-threatening if not managed promptly. Placenta previa significantly increases the risk of PPH due to abnormal placental attachment and bleeding during delivery.
The Challenge
In this case, the patient presented with:
-
Diagnosed placenta previa
-
High risk of massive bleeding
-
Need for immediate and well-planned intervention
Such cases demand advanced obstetric expertise, availability of blood products, and a multidisciplinary approach to ensure maternal and neonatal safety.
Expert Management and Successful Outcome
Under the leadership of Dr. Rashmi Baliyan, the pregnancy was managed with:
-
Careful antenatal monitoring
-
Planned delivery with emergency preparedness
-
Prompt control of severe PPH
-
Coordinated teamwork involving anesthesia, blood bank, and neonatal care
Due to timely decision-making and expert surgical management, both mother and baby remained safe, marking a successful outcome in a high-risk pregnancy scenario.
