Retrospective Assessment of the Risk of Peripartum Hemorrhage in Pregnant Women : Retrospective Assessment of the Diagnostic Performance of the HEMSTOP Standardized Questionnaire

July 19, 2022 updated by: Denis SCHMARTZ, Brugmann University Hospital
The diagnostic performance of the HEMSTOP (Hematoma, hEmorrhage, Menorrhagia, Surgery, Tooth extraction, Obstetrics, Parents) standardized questionnaire collected during the preoperative anesthesia consultation in order to detect a deficit in hemostasis associated with the risk of hemorrhage in pregnant women will be analyzed. The primary aim of the study is to assess the sensitivity and the specificity of the HEMSTOP questionnaire to identity patients with an abnormal first-line hemostasis test requiring further development by performing second-line hemostasis tests. The second aim of the study is to assess the sensitivity and specificity of the HEMSTOP questionnaire in predicting postpartum hemorrhage.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Full-term pregnant women with HEMSTOP

Full-term pregnant women who have given birth vaginally or by cesarean section. Patients for whom a HEMSTOP questionnaire could be carried out in prepartum, during the pre-delivery anesthesia consultation.

Patients who received follow-up during pregnancy as recommended. Age over 18

A HEMSTOP questionnaire is obtained during the anesthesia consultation.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Sensitivity and specificity lab tests
Time Frame: 24 hours

Sensitivity and the specificity of the HEMSTOP questionnaire to identity patients with an abnormal first-line hemostasis test requiring further development by performing second-line hemostasis tests will be calculated.

Firstline hemostasis tests are aPTT, PT, INR, fibrinogen level and platelet count.

24 hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Sensitivity and specificity hemorrhage
Time Frame: 24 hours

Sensitivity and specificity of the HEMSTOP questionnaire in predicting postpartum hemorrhage will be assessed.

Postpartum hemorraghe is defined as blood loss greater then 500 mL for vaginal deliveries and greater than 1000 mL for cesarean sections.
