The following are the different types of Hemorrhage: ( There are two types of Hemorrhage: internal and external.)
A) Upper Head:
-Intracranial Hemorrhage: A bleeding that occurs in the skull.
-Cerebral Hemorrhage: This is one of the types of intracranial Hemorrhage where the brain tissue bleeds within itself.
-Intracerebral Hemorrhage: When the brain bleeds due to the rupture in the blood vessel within the head.
-Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH): when there is blood present within the subarachnoid space due to a pathologic process. It is a nontraumatic type of hemarrhage, typically caused due to a berry aneurysm or arteriovenous malformation.
B) Eyes:
-Subconjunctival Hemorrhage: A broken blood vessel in the sclera – the white of the eyes – results in the blood eye. It often occurs due to strain, including sneezing, coughing, vomiting, or other kinds of strain.
C) Nose:
-Epistaxis: It is commonly known as a nosebleed.
D) Mouth:
-Tooth eruption: When you lose a tooth, it is known as a tooth eruption.
-Hematemesis: You start vomiting fresh blood.
-Hemoptysis: When you start coughing blood from the lungs is called hemoptysis.
E) Lungs:
-Pulmonary Hemorrhage
F) Gastrointestinal:
-Upper gastrointestinal bleed
-Lower gastrointestinal bleed
-Occult gastrointestinal bleed
G) Urinary Tract:
-Hematuria – When you urinate, there is blood. It is known as hematuria.
H) Gynacologic:
-Vaginal bleeding
-Postpartum Hemorrhage
-Breakthrough bleeding
-Ovarian bleeding: Patients with polycystic ovary syndrome undergoing transvaginal oocyte retrieval are more likely to experience ovarian bleeding. It is fatal and is a common complication of the procedure.
I) Anus:
-Melena – occurs when there is an upper gastrointestinal bleeding
-Hematochezia – occurs when there is lower gastrointestinal bleeding or brisk upper gastrointestinal bleeding
J) Vascular:
-Ruptured aneurysm
-Aortic transection
-Iatrogenic injury
The effects of acute haemorrhage depend on the amount and rapidity of blood loss, and the efficiency of the compensatory power of the subject. If severe haemorrhage is left untreated, you may experience chest pain, confusion, faster breathing or heart rate, organ failure, seizures, shock, coma, or dRead more
