In this powerful story from Massachusetts, Dr. Greta Hanson, a dedicated OBHG hospitalist and site director, recounts a harrowing experience that highlights the life-saving role of OB hospitalists. A 40-year-old patient with a history of two pregnancies and a prior C-section came in for a routine D&C (dilation and curettage) following a miscarriage. What started as a standard procedure quickly turned critical when the patient began to bleed heavily.

Thanks to swift action, Dr. Hanson was called in. After using ultrasound to confirm there was no remaining pregnancy tissue, the team inserted a pediatric Foley catheter to control the hemorrhage. The patient had lost 1700 mL of blood. With expert care, antibiotics, and estrogen therapy, the patient stabilized and was discharged the next day with safe hemoglobin levels.

🩺 This case is a sobering reminder: gynecological emergencies can escalate quickly—and having an OB hospitalist program can make all the difference.
