Maternal patient safety bundles are now a part of many hospital guidelines. A postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) case study will be presented covering anesthetic management and the use of tranexamic acid (TXA) during PPH. Recent clinical trials on TXA and the patient safety bundle for obstetric hemorrhage will be outlined. Thromboelastography interpretation in PPH will support the use of TXA.
