OB Hemorrhage Toolkit 86 86 OBSTETRIC HEMORRHAGE CARE GUIDELINES DIRECTIONS FOR USE The following care guidelines provide summary information to assist with preparing for and responding to obstetric hemorrhage. The three formats—checklist, table chart, flowchart—are presented in order from the most comprehensive (checklist format) to the most streamlined (flowchart). One goal of the Hemorrhage Task Force was to create guideline documents that would outline best practices for each stage of hemorrhage while addressing the different levels of clinical and staff involvement in care and their various learning styles. The checklist format is the most comprehensive summary guideline and provides detailed information for identifying stages of hemorrhage and for preparing appropriate clinical strategies at each stage of hemorrhage. In addition, it is intended to guide all clinicians and staff involved in maternal care during a hemorrhage event. The table chart is a summary of the checklist; it provides an intermediate level of detail and is sufficiently simple to be contained on one page and to act as a cognitive aid. Finally, the flowchart is intended to be a simpler summary and cognitive aid and provides treatment decision points for each stage of hemorrhage.
