Multicenter Study Clinical TrialImpact of simulation and team training on postpartum hemorrhage management in non-academic centers.
Prompt recognition and response to postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) are vital in preventing maternal morbidity and mortality. We conducted a multi-center study to evaluate in situ simulation and team training for PPH among experienced clinical teams in non-academic hospitals in urban and rural communities. ⋯ Simulation and team training significantly improved postpartum hemorrhage response times among clinically experienced community labor and delivery teams.
