Intrauterine balloon tamponade. If there is postoperative bleeding from the surface of placenta previa separation or due to atonic bleeding, intrauterine balloon tamponade should be attempted. Bakri, Fuji-metro, etc., balloons are available. After infusing physiological saline, in quantities of 80 to 200 mL, into the balloon, gauze should be packed in the vagina to prevent the balloon from dislodging.
