The JADA system was created by Alex Norred, a biomedical engineering student, with the help of Drs. George Harper and David Lagrew in an effort to reduce postpartum hemorrhage-associated maternal mortality. ]]> 2023-06-03 20:39:19 UTC https://padlet.com/langlm98/nd52uxukisj7npyj/wish/2613677653 langlm98 https://padlet.com/langlm98/nd52uxukisj7npyj/wish/2613677801 Approved for use by FDA in August 2020]]> 2023-06-03 20:39:54 UTC https://padlet.com/langlm98/nd52uxukisj7npyj/wish/2613677801 langlm98 https://padlet.com/langlm98/nd52uxukisj7npyj/wish/2613677833 Postpartum hemorrhage is the leading cause of maternal mortality in the U.S. with uterine atony, or the failure of the uterus to properly contract after birth, as the most prevalent cause of postpartum hemorrhage. (D'Alton et al., 2021). When uterine atony occurs following delivery, initial management includes uterine massage and administration of uterotonic medications to promote the contraction of the uterus. If these measures are not effective, various devices can be used to help control bleeding (D'Alton et al., 2021). Prior to FDA approval of the Jada System, intrauterine devices to control hemorrhage focused on tamponade methods where a balloon was placed into the uterus and inflated in order to compress the bleeding vessels. These methods have a success rate of 85.8% but requires 12-24 hours of indwelling time and pose risks including expulsion of the device from the uterus, lacerations to the cervix or vagina, uterine perforation, and infection (D'Alton et al., 2021). The Jada System is unique and novel because rather than employing a tamponade method, the mechanism of action is that of vacuum suction. The device is introduced to the uterus through the cervix and connected to low wall suction in order to compress the uterus from the inside (D'Alton et al., 2021). Various trials have proven the efficacy of the device with 94-99% success rates (D'Alton et al., 2021). ]]> 2023-06-03 20:40:00 UTC https://padlet.com/langlm98/nd52uxukisj7npyj/wish/2613677833 langlm98 https://padlet.com/langlm98/nd52uxukisj7npyj/wish/2613677871 Minimally invasive
Low risk for adverse events or complications
Less discomfort for patient vs tamponade methods
High success rate in clinical trials
Faster time to reduced bleeding vs tamponade methods

Additionally, the device cannot be used unless the cervix is or can be dilated to at least 3 cm as this is needed for safe placement of the Jada. Efficacy has not be proven for the use of Jada following a birth before 34 weeks gestation, with placenta accreta, or in patients with clotting disorders. (D'Alton et al., 2021).]]> 2023-06-03 20:40:17 UTC https://padlet.com/langlm98/nd52uxukisj7npyj/wish/2613677888 langlm98 https://padlet.com/langlm98/nd52uxukisj7npyj/wish/2613678011 This device has been proven to be both safe and effective at managing postpartum hemorrhage when conservative management with uterine massage and uterotonic medications is unsuccessful. Various clinical trials have been performed which validate the efficacy and support the use of this device in the clinical setting. Jada is minimally invasive and poses low risk for complications. Use of this device is highly effective at preventing devastating postpartum hemorrhage which if not properly managed can lead to hysterectomy or maternal death. ]]> 2023-06-03 20:40:48 UTC https://padlet.com/langlm98/nd52uxukisj7npyj/wish/2613678011 langlm98 https://padlet.com/langlm98/nd52uxukisj7npyj/wish/2613678094 My Top 5 Strengths:
