Case Reports

Peripartum management of a patient with Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia using Thrombelastograph®

S. Monte* and G. Lyons

Department of Obstetric Anaesthesia, St James’ University Hospital, Beckett Street, Leeds LS9 7TF, UK*Corresponding author

We describe the perioperative management of a 31-yr-old primipara with Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia, who required urgent Caesarean delivery at 33 weeks’ gestation. Peripartum haemorrhage was inevitable and was pre-empted by transfusion of multiple blood products, the effects of which were monitored by Thrombelastograph®. The blood products given are discussed.
