Abstract

Each Evidence Update is a 2-page summary of a Cochrane Review of healthcare interventions relevant to people in low-income and middle-income countries.

This Evidence Update is adapted from Mousa HA, Alfirevic Z. Treatment for primary postpartum haemorrhage. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2007, Issue 1. Art. No.: CD003249. DOI: 10.1002/14651858. CD003249.pub2.

There is not enough evidence to determine the best drug treatment for women with primary postpartum haemorrhage.
