The impact of prepartum factor XIII activity on postpartum blood loss.
CONCLUSION: In the largest population analyzed for the influence of prepartum coagulation factors on PPH to date, prepartum factor XIII activity had a strong impact on postpartum blood loss across every statistical model and clinical subgroup. Our hypothesis that early replenishment of factor XIII levels might constitute a new tool in the prevention and effective early treatment of PPH should be evaluated in future trials.
