Summary

This study looked at whether using a balloon device early, along with standard second-line medication, can reduce severe bleeding after vaginal birth. About 405 women who had persistent bleeding despite first-line treatment were included. The goal was to see if early balloon placement lowers the need for blood transfusions or reduces blood loss.
