Why does excessive blood loss go undetected in a C-section?

Traditional surgical drape obscures blood loss

Vaginal bleeding occurs underneath the surgical drape, making it nearly impossible to see bleeding when it occurs.

Clinicians respond to symptoms of blood loss

Symptoms of hemorrhage may not be obvious until a significant amount of blood is lost, costing clinicians precious time.

A visual estimate of blood loss is inaccurate

Visual estimation leads to dramatic underestimation of blood loss by as much as 35 to 50%.

Introducing the Bleed ID system

Real-time blood loss collection and recognition solution for C-sections

Surgical drape

The Bleed ID C-section drape allows the clinical team to easily lift the cover of the window to see vaginal bleeding on the table. This maintains sterility and provides a view around the patient’s perineum and legs.

Suction pad

The Bleed ID suction pad is placed under the patient for the duration of the procedure and uses standard wall-mounted vacuum suction to collect fluid and transport it to a suction canister for visualization and quantification.
