Qualitative study uncovers negative experiences linked to communication gaps during major postpartum hemorrhage, highlighting critical targets for clinical care improvement.
( BJOG . 2023;130(9):1087–1095) Major postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is classified as losing more than or equal to 1 L of blood within 2 hours of vaginal birth. In Denmark, this occurs in 7.2% of vaginal deliveries, compared with an incidence of about 4% in the developed countries. Managing major PPH requires a quick and appropriate response from multiple clinical professionals and providing proper medicine. Women and their partners often have negative experiences of PPH, which may relate to deficiencies in communication.
