Empowering Midwives in Humanitarian Settings: Integrating Heat-Stable Carbetocin and Tranexamic Acid into Postpartum Hemorrhage Training
This case study highlights the value of a practical, LDHF refresher training strategy. This strategy bolstered providers' skills, knowledge, and confidence in using HSC and TXA for PPH prevention and treatment. Findings can guide future training in similar fragile, low-resource, and humanitarian settings. Strengthening midwifery leadership, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, and using the LDHF training approach can contribute to resilient health systems and taskforce, aligning with global efforts to reduce maternal mortality.
