Abstract
Background: Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is a major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Early diagnosis and management of PPH will improve the outcome of delivery. Aim and objective: To study factors associated with development of post partum haemorrhage and its treatment at tertiary health care center. Methodology: Patients admitted for PPH were study population. Data collection was done regarding history, clinical examination and investigation. PPH cases managed with medical and surgical intervations. Data analysed with appropriate statistical test. Results: Most common risk factor for PPH was pregnancy induced hypertension. Uterine atony was the major cause of PPH 75% cases. Total 62.50% cases responds to medical line of treatment.12.5% patients required bimanual uterine massage with medical treatment.18.75% patients required conservative surgical interventions and 6.25%patients required radical surgery.
