Editor's Notes
Nearly 350,000 women die annually worldwide from complications of pregnancy and childbirth More than 99 percent of these deaths occur in developing countries, where skilled healthcare providers, quality facilities, and adequate transportation and communication systems are largely unavailable to the poor. At least one quarter of these maternal deaths are due to postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) That figure nears 60 percent in the developing world The great majority of maternal deaths are preventable, if women have access to skilled providers in well-equipped facilities.

Once the problem is recognized and the decision to take the woman to a health facility is made, emergency transportation may not be available. Even in the case that a woman arrives at a primary health facility or hospital in time, the trained staff or necessary supplies and equipments may not be available to treat her.
