    IT WAS REPORTED POST CESAREAN SECTION PROCEDURE, THE PHYSICIAN PLACED THE BALLOON TRANSABDOMINALLY AND THEN FINISHED THE SUTURING. THE PATIENT HAD LOST 400 ML OF BLOOD AT THE TIME BEFORE PLACING THE BAKRI TAMPONADE BALLOON CATHETER. IN ADDITION, THE PATIENT WAS INJECTED WITH OXYTOCIN BEFORE USING THE BAKRI BALLOON TO STOP THE BLEEDING. AS EXPLAINED, THE PHYSICIAN USED THE ENCLOSED SYRINGE TO FILL THE BALLOON BUT FOUND THE LIQUID FLOWED OUT SLOWLY ALONG THE DRAINAGE TUBE. FINALLY, THE SALINE INJECTED REACHED TO 300ML. THE NEXT DAY THE PHYSICIAN WITHDREW THE BALLOON AND FOUND ONLY 30ML REMAINED IN THE BALLOON. THE PHYSICIAN CLEANED THE BALLOON AND INJECTED THE WATER 300ML TO OBSERVE. THE LEAKAGE WAS FOUND DURING THE PROCESS OF INJECTING. HOWEVER, ON THE THIRD DAY THE BALLOON HAD NO LEAK AND WAS STILL WITHIN 300ML OF WATER. NO UNINTENDED PORTION OF THE DEVICE REMAINED INSIDE THE PATIENT¿S BODY. NO ADDITIONAL PROCEDURES WERE REQUIRED DUE TO THIS OCCURRENCE. NO ADVERSE EFFECTS OR CONSEQUENCES WERE REPORTED TO THE PATIENT DUE TO THIS OCCURRENCE.
