Cook Medical’s Bakri Balloon

Cook Medical’s Bakri Balloon Introduction

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is one of the main causes of maternal death worldwide. Therefore, all birthing centers must be equipped with the necessary equipment to deal with this complication. Early detection of bleeding and controling it is very important in preventing maternal death. When uterotonics do not have a good and suitable contraction to control bleeding, Cook Medical Bakri Balloon is a simple and minimally invasive method to control uterine atony in postpartum bleeding. Consider adopting such a method before invasive methods! Research has shown that the use of a Bakri balloon has reduced the rate of hysterectomy in young mothers by more than 80%. Even in cases where surgery is necessary, it is used as a means of temporarily reducing bleeding.

Bekri Balloon Cook Medical (Cook Medical) produced in the United States, is a silicone intrauterine balloon with a length of 54 cm and a volume of 500 cc and is used to control and reduce bleeding. Bakri’s mechanism is such that the pressure of the balloon on the endometrial cavity or the increase of hydrostatic pressure near the uterine artery stops bleeding or reduces it.
