Postpartum Hemorrhage (PPH)

Abstract

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is one of the most common obstetric complications and also a major cause of maternal death. Although prevention is the best measure, some cases are not predictable. Early detection and management are necessary to prevent serious morbidity and mortality. Uterine atony is the most common cause of immediate PPH. Although many drugs and guidelines have been proposed, the incidence of PPH has not decreased.
