“…As all infants had immediate cord clamping (27), this finding is consistent with the view that delayed cord clamping causes placental to infant blood transfusion. There is also evidence that oxytocin administration after delivery of the placenta is associated with less maternal blood loss than administration before delivery of the placenta (28) and that early administration of oxytocin may increase the risk of a retained placenta (29). Perhaps, therefore, it is time to revisit how the third stage of labor is managed with reference to the timing of oxytocin administration and umbilical cord clamping so that both maternal and neonatal outcomes are considered.…”

Postpartum Hemorrhage is one of most common causes of maternal mortality worldwide accounting for 127,000 deaths annually. PPH is a preventable condition and early, timely intervention can prevent development of this dreadful condition. One such intervention that is highly recommended is Active Management of Third Stage of Labor. It is the only intervention known to prevent PPH. Though even with different interventions and blood transfusion facility, maternal deaths cannot be brought down to zero. Significant reduction can only be achieved by better education of women about maternal health. The main purpose of this study is to know the recent global and national prevalence of PPH, its prevention as well as management at an early stage, so as to reduce the overall burden of deaths resulting from PPH. Method:The literature regarding PPH was searched from various English language journals and published peer-reviewed articles on PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase and Google Scholar till 2015.

“…Twins and Induction of labour were found among 8 patients each, abruption in 5 cases and pre-eclampsia was risk factor among 4 cases. Among anaemic patients maximum number (20) had atonic PPH followed by traumatic PPH(12) and combined atonic & traumatic PPH (5). In cases of atonic PPH, maximum cases were anaemic (20) followed by placenta praevia (13).…”

“…3 In a recent randomized trial in the United States, birth weight, labor induction and augmentation, chorioamnionitis, magnesium sulfate use, and previous PPH were all positively associated with increased risk of PPH. 5 Uterine atony is defined as failure of myometrium to contract and retract following delivery. 6 Powerful and effective myometrial contractions are vital to arrest bleeding.…”
