iArc monogrAphs on the evAluAtion oF cArcinogenic risks to humAns

Maternal hemorrhage, defined as a cumulative blood loss of greater than or equal to 1,000 mL or blood loss accompanied by signs or symptoms of hypovolemia within 24 hours after the birth process, remains the leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide (1). Additional important secondary sequelae from hemorrhage exist and include adult respiratory distress syndrome, shock, disseminated intravascular coagulation, acute renal failure, loss of fertility, and pituitary necrosis (Sheehan syndrome).Hemorrhage that leads to blood transfusion is the leading cause of severe maternal morbidity in the United States closely followed by disseminated intravascular coagulation (2). In the United States, the rate of postpartum hemorrhage increased 26% between 1994 and 2006 primarily because of increased rates of atony (3). In contrast, maternal mortality from postpartum obstetric hemorrhage has decreased since the late 1980s and accounted for slightly more than 10% of maternal mortalities (approximately 1.7 deaths per 100,000 live births) in 2009 (2, 4). This observed decrease in mortality is associated with increasing rates of transfusion and peripartum hysterectomy (2-4).The purpose of this Practice Bulletin is to discuss the risk factors for postpartum hemorrhage as well as its evaluation, prevention, and management. In addition, this document will encourage obstetrician-gynecologists and other obstetric care providers to play key roles in implementing standardized bundles of care (eg, policies, guidelines, and algorithms) for the management of postpartum hemorrhage.

Screening for ovarian cancer: a pilot randomised controlled trial

Advantages of web-based learning (WBL) in medical education include overcoming barriers of distance and time, economies of scale, and novel instructional methods, while disadvantages include social isolation, up-front costs, and technical problems. Web-based learning is purported to facilitate individualised instruction, but this is currently more vision than reality. More importantly, many WBL instructional designs fail to incorporate principles of effective learning, and WBL is often used for the wrong reasons (eg for the sake of technology). Rather than trying to decide whether WBL is superior to or equivalent to other instructional media (research addressing this question will always be confounded), we should accept it as a potentially powerful instructional tool, and focus on learning when and how to use it. Educators should recognise that high fidelity, multimedia, simulations, and even WBL itself will not always be necessary to effectively facilitate learning.

Transvaginal color and pulsed Doppler assessment of adnexal tumor vascularity.

Several screening procedures have been proposed to detect ovarian and endometrial cancer. However, none of them is sensitive and specific enough to be used in population-based screening programs. During our 5 year long study, 5013 asymptomatic women (44% premenopausal and 56% postmenopausal women) were scanned by transvaginal color and pulsed Doppler ultrasonography in an attempt to detect malignancy. These women had 404 adnexal cysts; 70 had resolved spontaneously on follow-up scans and 18 persisted. Another 316 sonographically benign cysts are still in the procedure of follow-up second scans. Of 5013 women, four women had stage I ovarian carcinoma and six had stage I endometrial carcinoma. There was one false-positive case encountered with an endometrioma. Only 14 women were subjected to major operative intervention; others underwent minor procedures based on the benign scan findings. No medical or surgical complications were reported. Transvaginal color Doppler ultrasonography, a noninvasive procedure, can detect ovarian and endometrial carcinoma in asymptomatic women and may be used as a screening procedure for these diseases.
