  • Affects 2-10% of deliveries, severe in 1%.
  • Remains a leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality globally.

Purpose:

  • To outline the classification, causes, and management strategies for postpartum hemorrhage.
  • To highlight the importance of timely and appropriate interventions.

Summary:
