COR2ED Medical Education: In this podcast, Prof. Andra H. James (Professor Emeritus of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Division Maternal Fetal Medicine, Duke University Hospital, Durham, North Carolina, US) and Dr Maria Elisa Mancuso (Senior Haematology Consultant at the Center for Thrombosis and Hemorrhagic Diseases of IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy) discuss various treatment options for severe postpartum haemorrhage (also called PPH).

Experts discuss what causes PPH and how to determine the risk before and during labour with algorithms and other helpful tools. The discussion moves to when haematologic expertise is required and how collaboration can be optimized to provide the best care for patients. Furthermore, the experts share their learnings from clinical practice through discussion of specific patient cases, including patients with and without underlying bleeding disorders, as well as where haemostatic agents fit in the protocol.

What does thrombophilia testing mean for patients or their families? Do you know when and who to test for thrombophilia? In this podcast, experts Prof. Saskia Middeldorp and Prof. Jean Connors explore the diagnostic challenges for thrombophilia and which patients can benefit most from screening. In specific situations, testing can be crucial, but not always. Before testing, it is important to understand whether testing is needed and consider how it will provide support for decision making. ASH guidelines may be helpful. The experts discuss how these recommendations should be applied in general practice, as some caution is recommended.
