The New York State Safe Motherhood Initiative: Early Impact of Obstetric Hemorrhage Bundle Implementation.
Dena Goffman,Cande V. Ananth,Adiel Fleischer,Adiel Fleischer,Mary E. D'Alton,Jessica A. Lavery,Richard M. Smiley,Kristin Zielinski,Cynthia Chazotte +8 more
TL;DR: Statewide implementation of bundles is feasible with resources critical to success, but the low hemorrhage-related maternal death rate makes changes in mortality risk difficult to detect over short time intervals.

Complications of Cesarean Birth: Clinical Recommendations for Prevention and Management.
Carol A. Burke,Roma Allen +1 more
TL;DR: The increase in severe maternal morbidity and mortality in the United States correlates with a rise in U.S. cesarean birth rates from 5.5% in 1970 to 31.9% of all births in 2018, far beyond the World Health Organization goal of 10% to 15%.
Journal ArticleDOI
How Low Is Too Low? Postpartum Hemorrhage Risk among Women with Thrombocytopenia.
TL;DR: Thrombocytopenia is associated with both laboratory and clinical evidence of hemorrhage; risk increases dramatically as platelet count decreases.
Journal ArticleDOI
A risk model to predict severe postpartum hemorrhage in patients with placenta previa: a single-center retrospective study.
TL;DR: The risk prediction model which had clinical and ultrasound imaging information prior to delivery had a high decision accuracy and before it can be used in the clinic, multicenter large-sample clinical studies should be performed to verify its accuracy and reliability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prenatal anemia and postpartum hemorrhage risk: A systematic review and meta-analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the outcomes of studies on the relationship between prenatal anemia and postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) related mortality, and they found that severe anemia increases PPH risk (OR = 3.54; 95% CI: 1.20, 10.4, p-value = 0.020).

The World Health Report 2005 - make every mother and child count
TL;DR: The World Health Report 2005 – Make Every Mother and Child Count, says that this year almost 11 million children under five years of age will die from causes that are largely preventable.

TL;DR: Clinicians should be more vigilant given the possibility that the frequency and severity of PPH has in fact increased, and training should be provided to all staff involved in maternity care concerning assessment of blood loss and the monitoring of women after childbirth.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Epidemiology of Postpartum Hemorrhage in a Large, Nationwide Sample of Deliveries
TL;DR: PPH caused by uterine atony resulting in transfusion often occurs in the absence of recognized risk factors and is associated with substantial maternal morbidity and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trends in postpartum hemorrhage: United States, 1994-2006.
TL;DR: In this article, a study was conducted to estimate the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage in the United States and to assess trends, showing an apparent increase in PPH caused by uterine atony.
Deaths: final data for 2004.
TL;DR: Mortality patterns in 2004 were consistent with long-term trends, and life expectancy in 2004 increased again to a new record level and the age-adjusted death rate declined to a record low historical figure.
