[Shock in abruptio placentae (author's transl)].
In sixty abruptions of the placenta observed during eighteen months, a severe condition of shock was observed in thirty per cent of patients. This shock state is seen during the abruption or after delivery. It's essentially a question of hemorrhagic shock, the importance of hemorrhagy being often underestimated, if the drop of blood pressure and blood losses are only estimated. The measurement of central venous pressure and the research of metabolic acidosis are better indexes of shock. This shock is associated with hypofibrinogenaemia and with other symptoms of disseminated intra-vascular coagulation. Fibrinolysis is rarely observed (3 times). Presence of fibrin degradation products is frequent. Renal complications are observed only in 1/6 of cases, but are frequently severe (one case of renal cortical necrosis). Heparinotherapy does not confirm the hope be suscited and seems to be a frequent source of ehmorrhagic complications in African women. Perfusion of fibrinogen, if useful, can be another source of complications. Rapid transfusion is the more effective treatment of abruption placenta and probably the less dangerous with strict control of the central venous pressure.
