How to prepare for postpartum hemorrhage

The aim of this paper is not to outline a specific medical-surgical algorithm for managing PPH, but rather to give an overview of system-wide preparedness that should be considered in planning to mitigate this frequent, potentially life-threatening, obstetrical emergency.

Maternal Mortality Postpartum Hemorrhage Resources

A collection of standards, guidelines, tools and articles for the OB managing postpartum hemorrhage. Among these are an updated hemorrhage toolkit to develop methods for timely recognition and response, a resource overview from ACOG, and recommendations from WHO on prevention and treatment of postpartum hemorrhage.

Maternal mortality in the media

While ob/gyns are certainly aware of the unacceptably high numbers of maternal mortality in the US, the general public is now becoming acquainted with the issue, thanks in part to coverage by mainstream media outlets. To help practitioners stay on these stories, Contemporary OB/GYN will post links to these reports on our Media page, and we will include details about the source of the reports and the dates of publication.
