Veit. Zur Pathologie und Therapie der Blutungen unmittelbar nach der Geburt (Zeitschrift f. Geb. und Gyn., XXVIII Bd., 2 Hft.). To pathology and therapy of postnatal bleeding

At the sight of postpartum hemorrhage, the doctor is usually so lost that he does not stop at the choice of means to stop it, often exposing the woman in labor in this way to the danger of infection, while the danger of further bleeding or of the whole does not exist, or can easily be eliminated by a more rational way. Truly, if you do not act rashly, but rather coolly to navigate every time unto the state of affairs, it is very easy to do completely aseptic measures, it is not resorting to such a dangerous manipulation, as manual separation of the placenta, the introduction of full hands unto the uterine cavity or even tamponato by iodine-phorme gauze. The cause of bleeding in the postpartum period is, as usual, either the injury of the soft parts, or the atony of the uterus.
