Quantitatively Assessed Blood Loss Compared To Visually Estimated Blood Loss In The Early Identification And Treatment Of Post-Partum Hemorrhage, Hannah E. Collier, Ryan Crawford
University of South Carolina Upstate Student Research Journal
Nearly one-quarter of all maternal pregnancy-related deaths worldwide are a result of post-partum hemorrhage (PPH) [1]. In the Joint Commission’s Sentinel Event Database, hemorrhage was a causal factor in over half of the cases leading to maternal death or severe morbidity [3]. Between 1993 and 2014, the rate of PPH per 10,000 delivery hospitalizations increased by almost five times, from 4.3 to 21.2 [3]. Using visualization to estimate blood loss is currently the primary method for assessment. However, a new, alternative assessment technique is using quantitative measurement. These two techniques were compared through a literature review. The literature review was …

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide and the second-leading cause of death among women in the United States. While lack of knowledge about breast cancer is a key factor in breast cancer mortality, little is known about breast cancer knowledge among women under the age of 30. The goal of the current study was to investigate the knowledge and awareness of breast cancer among undergraduate students in the United States. This was a cross-sectional survey of 265 male and female undergraduate students at the University of South Carolina Upstate. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to predict …
