My major research interest is thromboembolism and obstetrical DIC, and research goal is to prevent death due to hemorrhage and thrombosis. Recently, we revealed the risks of thromboembolism related combined oral contraceptives in Japan, and we evaluated the effect of estetrol combined with drospirenone on blood coagulation and fibrinolysis system in Japanese patients diagnosed with endometriosis at present. Furthermore, we revealed the thrombosis-related characteristics of pregnant women with hereditary thrombophilia in Japan and developed clinical guidance for peripartum management of patients with hereditary thrombophilia. As for hemorrhage, we newly developed diagnostic criteria for obstetrical DIC.
