Abstract

Purpose: We evaluated the efficacy and predictors of clinical outcome after transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) for treatment of postpartum hemorrhage with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Materials and Methods: Of 127 patients who underwent TAE for postpartum hemorrhage, 46 progressed to DIC (group 1), 81 showed normal range hematological parameters (group 2). We retrospectively evaluated etiology, embolization methods and the efficacy of TAE for intergroup comparison Pearson Chi-Square test and logistic regression model. Results: Overall TAE failed to control bleeding in 9 patients in spite of technical success. Lower bleeding control rate was found in group 2 (82.6%) relative to group 1 (98.8%, p = 0.001). And embolization methods were not statistically different between two groups no statistically significant predictors associated with failed hemostasis except the amount of transfusion in group 1. Conclusion: Although bleeding control rate is lower in postpartum hemorrhage with DIC than without DIC, we believe that TAE with correction of DIC is an effective method for postpartum hemorrhage with DIC.

목적: 파종성혈관내응고를 동반한 분만 후 출혈의 치료로서 경도관동맥색전술의 효용성과 결과에 영향을 미치는 인자들에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 대상과 방법: 분만 후 출혈로 인해 동맥색전술을 시행받은 127명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 46명의 환자는 시술 전 파종성혈관내응고(집단 1)로 진행되었고 81명의 환자는 혈액응고검사에서 정상 범위의 수치를 보였다(집단 2). 집단 간의 원인질환, 동맥색전술 방법과 지혈 성공률 등을 후향적으로 평가하였으며 통계학적 분석은 Pearson Chi-Square test와 logistic regression model을 이용하였다. 결과: 기술적인 성공에도 불구하고 9명의 환자에서는 동맥색전술 후에도 출혈이 멈추지 않았다. 지혈 성공률은 집단 2(98.8%)에 비해 집단 1(82.6%)에서 더 낮았다(p = 0.001). 집단 간의 원인질환, 동맥색전술 방법에는 차이가 없었으며 집단 1에서 수혈량을 제외하고 시술 전 통계학적으로 의미 있게 지혈 실패에 영향을 미치는 인자들은 보이지 않았다. 결론: 비록 지혈의 성공률은 파종성혈관내응고집단에서 유의하게 낮았지만, 파종성혈관내응고의 교정을 동반한 경도관색전술은 효과적인 치료법이라 생각된다.
