Important Considerations
The NASG is a temporary measure to stabilize the patient. It does not treat the underlying cause* of the bleeding.
Timely transport to a facility capable of providing definitive treatment is crucial.
The NASG should be part of a comprehensive approach to managing obstetric hemorrhage, including medications, fluid resuscitation, and surgical intervention when necessary.
Training and availability of the NASG are essential for improving maternal outcomes in resource-limited settings.
Ethical considerations: it should be used by trained staff to protect the dignity of patients.
