uterine atony - failure of uterus to contract after delivery
Definition for uterine atony
Uterine atony is a loss of tone in the uterine musculature. Normally, contraction of the uterine arteries compresses the vessels and reduces flow.
more
Uterine atony is a loss of tone in the uterine musculature. Normally, contraction of the uterine arteries compresses the vessels and reduces flow. This increases the likelihood of coagulation and prevents bleeds. Thus, lack of uterine muscle contraction can cause an acute hemorrhage.
