Northeast Georgia Medical Center recently became the first hospital in Georgia to use the Jada System, a new life-saving technology system to treat mothers suffering from postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and abnormal uterine bleeding.
According to a release from NGMC, postpartum hemorrhage and abnormal uterine bleeding require immediate intervention, and the Jada System is the first treatment to be made available for this purpose in the U.S. in more than a decade. Previous technology required 12 to 24 hours of balloon pressure inside the uterus to stop bleeding, but the Jada System can get bleeding under control within an average of three minutes.
