Treat for shock just as you would any hemorrhagic condition: Lay flat, keep

warm, IV fluids if available, monitor vitals, etc. Palpate the fundus (the top of

the uterus); is the uterus firm and small (so well contracted and probably not

the source of bleeding), soft and small (possibly not well contracted – maybe

bleeding, or soft and big or getting bigger (not contacted and probably filled

with blood)? Use gloves and examine outer vulva & rectum for tears, examine

inside vagina for same, examine anterior cervical lip. Bleeding will either be

coming from a visible source, or out of the cervix with no visible tears and,

therefore, intrauterine – coming from within the uterus.
