Q

physical examination in vaginal bleeding

A

determine hemodynamic status
performing complete abdominal and pelvic exam

Q

treatment of hemodynamically unstable vaginal bleed

A

IV crystalloid bolus
blood transfusions if not response to bolus

high dose IV conjugated estrogen (25mg) is first line, q4-6h for up to 24 hours
if bleeding continues can pack vagina with long continuous gauze, or insert foley into uterus to tamponade bleeding
