“…Constant seepage causes relatively faster blood loss. Some cases show that after separation of the placenta, blood may not come out through the vagina but collects in the uterine cavity to more than 1,000 mL (Pugh, 1981). Uterine atony refers to the inadequate contraction of the myometrial cells of the uterine corpus in response to endogenous oxytocin released during labor.…”

Postpartum hemorrhage is excessive bleeding that occurs after delivery due to blood loss of 500 mL in a standard delivery or 1,000 mL in a cesarean delivery. Postpartum hemorrhage is divided into primary and secondary and classified based on the 4 Ts: tone, trauma, tissue, and thrombin. Uterine atony is the most common cause. The use of uterine tamponade is an option to treat postpartum hemorrhage (PPP) because it is relatively non-invasive, with a success rate of more than 80%. Using uterine tamponade is easy and quite simple but requires hands-on training to increase confidence in installing uterine tamponade. The literature sources used are Google Scholar, Pubmed, Science Direct, Hindawi, Medline, and Cochrane. After obtaining appropriate literature, the literature is compiled. Uterine tamponade is a second-line treatment for uterine atony that does not respond to uterotonics. Based on the literature search that has been carried out, uterine tamponade is an effective therapy for PPH, is easy to use, and has a low risk of harm with a success rate of 80-87.3%. The use of uterine tamponade can also significantly reduce the need for invasive procedures. Uterine atony is the most common cause of PPH, which results in morbidity and mortality. Uterine tamponade has been proven to be effective, safe, practical, and cheap to treat PPH in daily practice. Further research may be needed in Indonesia to determine the effectiveness of uterine tamponade in treating uterine atony.

“…Thus, for Au films on GaAs heated in vacuo, gas-phase arsenic species have been observed to evolve at temperatures as low as 550 K [1], as predicted from simple bulk thermodynamic calculations [5]. The size of the entropic term can be estimated by calculating TAS for the sublimation of one mole of solid at a pressure of 10-8 "Trr and 298 K (TAS = nRT Pn(p) ; 62 kJ).…”

Theimddynamically Stable Metal / III-V Compound-Semiconductor Interfaces

Chemical reactions that occur at a metal/III-V compound-semiconductor interface should be minimized if the change in Gibbs free energy of the bulk materials with respect to any possible reaction products is positive. Hywever, the large positive change in entropy caused by vaporization of the highly volatile group V elements is a very important contribution to the Gibbs free energy of these systems, especially at higher temperatures.Thus, a particular metal/III-V compound-semiconductor interface may be thermodynamically stable at one temperature, but unstable with respect to sublimation of elemental group V species at a higher temperature if the enthalpy change for the reaction is positive. Examination of bulk phase diagrams makes it possible to rationalize the reaction products observed and to predict which will be the most stable interface for any particular metal/III-V system.
