Back in 1630, Shah Jahan built the famous Taj Mahal Palace in the memory of his wife Mumtaz who died as a result of postpartum massive bleeding giving birth to her fourteenth child. [1] To this day, bleeding continues to be one of the most common obstetric complications. Massive life-threatening coagulopathic bleeding with blood loss more than 1.5% of body weight, or more than 30% of the circulating blood volume, is given special attention.
