## Resource

Uterine compression sutures are effective, uterus-sparing techniques for managing severe postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) due to atony, avoiding hysterectomy. Keytypes include the B-Lynch suture (vertical, brace-like), Hayman suture (simplified vertical), and Pereira sutures (multiple, comprehensive sutures), and Cho Compression (quadrant square anterior to posterior closures), are applied when pharmacological methods fail. But these, while helpful with atony, do not address the LUS bleeding from previa which are below these applications. Even the O’Leary lateral sutures are often higher tha the bleeding and thin, anterior LUS affected by previa. Previa is a significant risk factor for PPH. In this episode, we will highlight 3 novel suture techniques which have been in print (TWO as recent as January 2026) which can be effective in stopping the LUS bleeding and avoiding hysterectomy. We will highlight the transverse circumferential purse string, the simple transverse Nausicaa suture, and theLUS WaveForm suture. These are easy to use and may be lifesaving. 1.
