Damage Control Surgery in Obstetrics state of the art.

Main Article Content
Damage control surgery in obstetrics is a technique aimed at managing catastrophic obstetric hemorrhage when conventional methods have failed. Its main objective is to control the bleeding and stabilize the patient, allowing for the correction of metabolic alterations and coagulopathies. This intervention is carried out in stages: it begins with an abbreviated laparotomy, followed by abdominal tamponade and culminates with transfer to the intensive care unit for subsequent stabilization. The proper application of this approach has been shown to improve survival rates in cases of massive hemorrhage, and the article provides a detailed review of the techniques, indications, complications and outcomes associated with this procedure.
