title: [Treatment of post-partum atonic hemorrhage with prostaglandin F2 alpha analogs].
abstract: In the authors' group of patients with haemorrhage during childbirth, in 1990-1994 a total of 28 atonic haemorrhages were recorded, 15 of them were controlled by uterotonic treatment, in the remaining 13 cases haemostasis using PG F2 alpha was applied after ruling out post-partum injury. Some patients were given moreover saline infusions. According to initial results and consistent with the literature analogues of PG F2 alpha are effective uterotonic preparations of a new generation. With regard to their simple and rapid administration they are becoming the drug of first aid in the treatment of acute atonic haemorrhage.
