Second and/or Third trimester vaginal bleeding is a common reason for L&D Triage patient assessment. The evaluation starts with determining the status of maternal hemodynamic stability. This together with IV access are key first steps. This is followed by an assessment of fetal-placental status. Typically this includes bedside ultrasound for fetal position, visual confirmation of FHTs, amniotic fluid determination, and placental location. At the same time, lab data is obtained to guide care: CBC, fibrinogen, type and RH, and possibly type and cross. Do you order a KB test as part of the STANDRAD evaluation for suspected placental abruption? In this episode, we will review a new study released ahead of print on June 8, 2025 in the European J of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Repro Biology. Listen in for details.
