This session will review clinical guidelines and contemporary risk assessment tools to evaluate for hemorrhage risk with dilation and evacuation. We plan to review strategies that address clinician and patient needs in freestanding clinics and hospital-based settings. We will also review current literature on tools to decrease bleeding during and after procedures.
Physicians, physician assistants, nurses, nurse practitioners, researchers, social workers, health educators and other healthcare professionals.

At the conclusion of this activity, participants will be able to: 

  1. List risk factors for hemorrhage with D&E procedures and who should have care at a referral center.
  2. Assess patients as low, medium or high-risk for hemorrhage prior to initiating cervical preparation for D&E.
  3. Select appropriate intraoperative measures to minimize and treat hemorrhage during D&E.
  4. Design an appropriate multi-specialty team for high-risk cases with the option to offer uterus-saving procedures or gravid hysterectomy, when indicated.
