This study focuses on postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), a condition that stands out as the leading cause of global maternal mortality. Annually, about 14 million women experience PPH, resulting in approximately 70,000 deaths. This condition presents a higher risk in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), particularly where access to quality care is limited. Recognizing the urgency of addressing this public health problem, the Colombian Ministry of Health and Social Protection has implemented the Maternal Mortality Reduction Acceleration Plan (PARE) to improve maternal mortality indicators and meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The project will evaluate the results and perception of a new device in the management of stage II PPH in referral hospitals in the department of Valle del Cauca, integrated in the Hospital Padrino strategy. This initiative seeks not only to improve the understanding and treatment of PPH, but also to strengthen institutional capacities through education, creation of telecare networks and care services adapted to local needs.

The JADA System is designed for single use only and is composed of medical grade silicone. Its components include an intrauterine loop with protected vacuum pores, a cervical seal with a sealing valve for infusing saline and a vacuum connector port for applying suction. The intrauterine loop is located at the distal end of a tube and contains 20 protected vacuum pores oriented inward along the loop. This shielded design facilitates intracavitary suction by shielding maternal tissue from the vacuum source and prevents clogging of the vacuum pores with tissue or clot.
Bleeding control
Postpartum hemorrhage defined as quantified bleeding of more than 500 ml for vaginal deliveries and more than 1000 ml for cesarean deliveries, occurring within the first 24 h after delivery and which may be associated with signs of hemodynamic instability, i.e. the ratio between heart rate and systolic blood pressure (shock index). Following this concept of the shock index and the amount of bleeding, the stages of postpartum hemorrhage are divided, which, according to the result of the shock index, the therapy is directed: Stage 1: Bleeding 500-1000 cc, Shock index of \<0.9, bleeding time \<10 minutes. Stage 2: Bleeding 1000-1500 cc, shock index 0.9-1.4 bleeding time 10-20 minutes. Stage 3: Bleeding \<1500 cc, shock index \>1.5, bleeding time greater than 20 minutes. Stage 4: Cardiovascular collapse with profound hypovolemic shock and coagulopathy. These stages will be measured through a bag which will fulfill the function of measuring to indicate the stage and amount of bleeding
Time frame: up to 42 days postpartum
