TL;DR: Drape estimation of blood loss is more accurate than visual estimation and may have particular utility in the developing world and may reduce maternal morbidity and mortality in low‐resource settings.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Despite increased use of antenatal corticosteroids in low-birthweight infants in the intervention groups, neonatal mortality did not decrease in this group, and increased in the population overall, and the risk of maternal infection seems to have been increased.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Birth attendants' adherence to essential birth practices was higher in facilities that used the coaching‐based WHO Safe Childbirth Checklist program than in those that did not, but maternal and perinatal mortality and maternal morbidity did not differ significantly between the two groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In populations of nulliparous women with singleton pregnancies from low-income and middle-income countries, low-dose aspirin initiated between 6 weeks and 0 days of gestation and 13 weeks and 6 days of pregnancy resulted in a reduced incidence of preterm delivery before 37 weeks, and reduced perinatal mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Most maternal, fetal and neonatal deaths occurred at or around delivery and were attributed to preventable causes, including haemorrhage, pre-eclampsia or eclampsic or sepsis, which offers the greatest chance of reducing mortality.
