Abstract: Novel prognosis methods associated with cases of postpartum haemorrhage providing a predictive test enabling practitioners to provide better management of patients suffering from postpartum haemorrhage. Different risk factors exist on which a score allowing prediction of the need to carry out invasive procedures to stop bleeding has been developed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an in vitro method of prognosis for the arrest of bleeding in a patient suffering from postpartum haemorrhage in the absence of an invasive procedure, comprising the following steps: (a) determining, using a biological sample from said patient, the plasma fibrinogen concentration, the blood troponin concentration and also the prothrombin time; (b) studying at least two clinical markers for said patient, selected from the group comprising heart rate and the presence of placentation abnormalities; (c) calculating a score Z according to the following equation: Z=a+b+v+d+e; where a is associated with the existence of placentation abnormalities in said patient, with a being 0 when no placentation abnormality is observed in said patient and a being 1 when one or more placentation abnormalities are observed in said patient; where b is associated with the heart rate of said patient, with b being 0 when the heart rate of said patient is less than or equal to 115 bpm (beats per minute)
