Korelasi Kadar Kalsium ION dengan Jumlah Darah Pasca Salin

Abstract

Background: Post partum hemorrhage is blood loss during vaginal delivery which around 500 mL or more than 1000 mL in cesarean section. Objective: The purpose is to assess the correlation of calcium ion levels with post partum blood volume at RSUP H Adam Malik and networking hospital in Medan. Methods: This study is an analytical study with case series, begin May - June 2022 in pregnant women in RSUP Haji Adam Malik and networking hospital with inclusion criteria. Postpartum blood volume using a pictogram and ion calcium levels were measured. Results is significant if p<0.05 with a 95% CI. Results: There were 22 patients around 21-35 years old (88%), 12 patients (48%) were primiparous.Mean of gestational age was 38-40 weeks. The majority (44%) had 4 antenatal care visits. All patients (100%) didn’t take calcium supplementation. There were 20 patients (80%) had > 23.5 cm upper arm circumference. There were 13 patients (52%) had 250-500 cc blood loss. There were 23 patients (92%) in hypocalcemic condition. Spearman correlation test showed a weak negative correlation between postpartum bleeding and ion calcium level. Conclusion: There is no correlation between ion calcium level with postpartum blood volume.
