Asian-White racial disparities in postpartum hemorrhage and severe postpartum hemorrhage in Ontario, Canada: A population-based cohort study
Variation in PPH and severe PPH risk was observed across racial, immigration, and language groups in Ontario, with modest differences overall but meaningful heterogeneity across subgroups. More granular consideration of immigration characteristics may improve understanding of maternal health inequities.
