Unexpected bleeding continues to be an issue that confronts anesthesiologists. Obstetric bleeding spearheads as the leading cause of maternal mortality and morbidity. One of the hurdles that clinicians confront is a lack of point of care coagulation system that can hasten the clinical management strategy in the right direction. Conventional methods take considerable time to obtain results. TEG and ROTEM are currently doing the job however these two modalities requires expertise and proficient training to perform test and interpret results. The level of expertise to run the TEG and ROTEM poses hurdles for providing coagulation around the clock as it requires trained operators. What is currently required for efficient and effective management of obstetric hemorrhage is a point of care coagulation system in the operating room and or labor and delivery suite that is user friendly, easy and quick to perform. In this study the investigators will evaluate a new point of care Quantra Hemostasis Analyzer system to assess coagulation rapidly with ease.
