Listen "E32: Estimated Blood Loss (EBL) "
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textEver wondered why there's not as much blood during labor as you might expect, given it's such a monumental physical event? Join us as we shed light on the fascinating topic of Estimated Blood Loss (EBL) throughout labor and delivery. We'll navigate the nuances of EBL, from why the birthing process is more about various bodily fluids than blood to the significance of post-delivery bleeding when the placenta detaches. We'll discuss the use of medications like Pitocin and Methergine and get hands-on with techniques such as 'credeing' that aid in preventing excessive blood loss. Whether you're a healthcare professional, an expectant parent, or simply curious about the childbirth process, this episode will arm you with knowledge and emphasize the importance of being informed about EBL in the magical, yet critical, moments post-delivery.Visit our website, here: https://birthlearning.com/Follow us on Facebook at Birth Learning Follow us on Instagram at @birthlearning Show CreditsHost: Angie Rosier Music: Michael Hicks Photographer: Toni WalkerEpisode Artwork: Nick Greenwood Producer: Gillian Rosier FramptonVoiceover: Ryan Parker
