Using Criteria‐Based Audit to Improve the Management of Postpartum Haemorrhage in a University Hospital in Eastern Ethiopia: A Before and After Study

Just over one in five women met the local audit criteria for postpartum haemorrhage management, and major barriers to providing the best possible care persist. These results highlights the need to develop a postpartum haemorrhage management template, availing blood for transfusion, providing low-dose high frequency (refresher) training and drills for staff, and enhancing documentation and record keeping in the hospital for improving quality of postpartum haemorrhage management to stop preventable deaths and sequelae from postpartum haemorrhage.
