Comparative Study[Practices for management of grave postpartum haemorrhage after vaginal delivery: a population-based study in 106 French maternity units].
Describe management of severe postpartum haemorrhages (PPH) and its compliance with national guidelines and identify determinants of non-optimal care. ⋯ Management practices for severe PPH can be improved, to an extent that varies by component of care and type of hospital. A qualitative approach should help to identify the individual and organizational factors explaining why guidelines are not fully applied.
