Complete recovery after 2 h of cardiopulmonary resuscitation following high-dose prostaglandin treatment for atonic uterine haemorrhage.
We report the case of a 31-year-old woman who delivered twins by Caesarean section in whom atonic uterine haemorrhage developed 6 h postoperatively. During conservative treatment with the high-dose prostaglandin analogs sulprostone (PGE(2)) and dinoprost (PGF(2alpha)), acute pulmonary oedema and cardiac decompensation developed and, subsequently, the patient suffered cardiopulmonary arrest. After a 2h-period of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), it was possible to restore and stabilize circulation under the highest dose of catecholamines. Despite 2h of CPR, the patient was discharged from hospital 3 months later without any major physical or neurocognitive deficit.
