Timing of Thromboprophylaxis After Postpartum Hemorrhage
Impact of the Timing of Pharmacological Thromboprophylaxis on Thromboembolic and Hemorrhagic Complications Following Postpartum Hemorrhage: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Postpartum hemorrhage is a leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Women who experience severe postpartum hemorrhage are at increased risk of both recurrent bleeding and venous thromboembolism. The optimal timing for starting pharmacological thromboprophylaxis after postpartum hemorrhage remains uncertain.
This retrospective observational cohort study was conducted at the Center of Maternity and Neonatology of Tunis, Tunisia. The study included women who experienced postpartum hemorrhage between 2018 and 2024 and received pharmacological thromboprophylaxis during the postpartum period. The objective was to evaluate the association between the timing of thromboprophylaxis initiation and the occurrence of thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complications.
The findings are expected to contribute to the optimization of thromboprophylaxis timing after postpartum hemorrhage and to improve the balance between the prevention of venous thromboembolism and the risk of recurrent bleeding.
연구 개요
상세 설명
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) remains one of the leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Women with severe PPH are at increased risk of venous thromboembolism during the postpartum period because of pregnancy-related hypercoagulability, prolonged immobilization, surgical interventions, and blood transfusion. At the same time, the early initiation of pharmacological thromboprophylaxis may increase the risk of recurrent hemorrhage. Consequently, determining the optimal timing for thromboprophylaxis after PPH remains a major clinical challenge.
This retrospective observational cohort study was conducted at the Center of Maternity and Neonatology of Tunis, Tunisia. The study included women who experienced postpartum hemorrhage and received pharmacological thromboprophylaxis during the postpartum period. Clinical, biological, obstetric, therapeutic, and outcome data were collected from medical records.
The primary objective was to evaluate the association between the timing of initiation of pharmacological thromboprophylaxis and the occurrence of thromboembolic complications following postpartum hemorrhage. Secondary objectives included the assessment of hemorrhagic complications after thromboprophylaxis, identification of factors associated with adverse outcomes, and evaluation of the safety of different initiation times in routine clinical practice.
The results of this study are expected to provide evidence supporting clinical decision-making regarding the optimal timing of thromboprophylaxis after postpartum hemorrhage and to contribute to improving maternal outcomes while balancing the risks of thrombosis and recurrent bleeding.

Early Thromboprophylaxis (≤24 Hours)
Women with postpartum hemorrhage who received the first dose of pharmacological thromboprophylaxis within the first 24 hours after delivery.
|
Pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis administered as part of routine postpartum clinical care after postpartum hemorrhage.
Patients received either low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) or unfractionated heparin (UFH) according to the treating physician's clinical judgment and institutional practice.
The study did not assign the intervention; it retrospectively evaluated the association between the timing of thromboprophylaxis initiation (≤24 hours versus >24 hours after delivery) and the occurrence of thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complications.
