Maternal mortality in Punjab has declined but remains above the national average. Postpartum hemorrhage is the leading cause of maternal death in the state, accounting for 35-40% of deaths. While programs and initiatives aim to further reduce the maternal mortality rate, challenges remain in ensuring trained healthcare workers and resources are available, administering active management of the third stage of labor, managing complications, and addressing preventable factors like anemia. Strengthening antenatal care, ensuring access to emergency services, and preventing postpartum hemorrhage through practices such as active management of the third stage of labor are important for reducing maternal mortality in Punjab.

Maternal health care situation in Bangladesh: Status and utilization of healt...Abdullah Maswood
Maternal health refers to the health of women during pregnancy, childbirth & postpartum period. Globally nearly 99% of 800 maternal deaths per day occur in developing countries. Maternal mortality has been reduced by 47% since 1990
Maternal Mortality is a concern for the government of India and hence it is important to know the various aspects of it. Government of India has introduced various programs to look upon it.
South Africa Demographic and Health Survey 2016: Key Indicators Report, 2016Statistics South Africa
The South African Demographic and Health Survey is a sample survey that was conducted by Statistics South Africa (Stats SA) and the South African Medical Research Council on behalf of the National Department of Health. The survey collected data from sampled households in the country between June and November 2016, with variables measuring health, fertility, nutrition and family planning, among others. The results of the survey will be used to measure the health status of South Africans as well as the coverage and quality of selected health programmes. The survey will also provide estimates on child and maternal mortality, fertility rates, and the prevalence of conditions such as diabetes and hypertension, among others.

As Europe's leading economic powerhouse and the fourth-largest hashtag#economy globally, Germany stands at the forefront of innovation and industrial might. Renowned for its precision engineering and high-tech sectors, Germany's economic structure is heavily supported by a robust service industry, accounting for approximately 68% of its GDP. This economic clout and strategic geopolitical stance position Germany as a focal point in the global cyber threat landscape.
In the face of escalating global tensions, particularly those emanating from geopolitical disputes with nations like hashtag#Russia and hashtag#China, hashtag#Germany has witnessed a significant uptick in targeted cyber operations. Our analysis indicates a marked increase in hashtag#cyberattack sophistication aimed at critical infrastructure and key industrial sectors. These attacks range from ransomware campaigns to hashtag#AdvancedPersistentThreats (hashtag#APTs), threatening national security and business integrity.
🔑 Key findings include:
🔍 Increased frequency and complexity of cyber threats.
🔍 Escalation of state-sponsored and criminally motivated cyber operations.
🔍 Active dark web exchanges of malicious tools and tactics.
Our comprehensive report delves into these challenges, using a blend of open-source and proprietary data collection techniques. By monitoring activity on critical networks and analyzing attack patterns, our team provides a detailed overview of the threats facing German entities.
This report aims to equip stakeholders across public and private sectors with the knowledge to enhance their defensive strategies, reduce exposure to cyber risks, and reinforce Germany's resilience against cyber threats.

20. Post Partum Hemorrhage
Despite the improved management of primary post partum haemorrhage
(PPH).
PPH remains an important cause of maternal morbidity in both
developing and technologically advanced countries.
It remains a condition that puts the obstetrical team under a lot of stress.
Complications of PPH can only be reduced when the condition is
promptly diagnosed and therapeutic measures instituted immediately.
21. Post Partum
Hemorrhage
• Postpartum Haemorrhage (PPH) is
commonly defined as a blood loss of 500 ml
or more within 24 hours after birth. PPH is
the leading cause of maternal mortality in
low-income countries and the primary cause
of nearly one quarter of all maternal deaths
globally. (WHO)
• Blood loss sufficient to cause signs and
symptoms of hypovolemia
• Woman soaks 1 pad or cloth in <5 min
22. Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH): a global public
health concern
• Severe bleeding after childbirth -
• Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) - is the leading cause of Maternal Mortality
world-wide. Each year, about 14 million women experience PPH resulting in
about 70,000 maternal deaths globally.
• Even when women survive, they often need urgent surgical interventions to
control the bleeding and may be left with life-
long reproductive disability.
23. Current
scenario of
Maternal
Mortality
Rate (MMR)
in Punjab
• The MMR in Punjab has decreased
significantly in recent years, from 211
maternal deaths per 100,000 live births in
2012-13 to 105 maternal deaths per
100,000 live births in 2021-22.
• However, the MMR in Punjab is still higher
than the National average of 97 maternal
deaths per 100,000 live births.
• Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is the
leading cause of maternal death in Punjab,
accounting for 35-40% of all maternal
deaths.
24. Challenges in PPH Management
3 Delays –(in Seeking care, Approaching Hospital, Initiating Adequate care)
• Availability of Trained HR, Trained Gynecologist/ LMO/MO
• Availability of Necessary items – PPH Management Kit in every Labour room.
• AMTSL - Greater use of the active management of third stage of labor.
• Non Trained Birth Attendant - Administration of misoprostol by nontrained birth attendants will provide beneficial reductions in
hemorrhage.
• Availability of blood units in case of emergency with out replacement
• Public Awareness – Need to strengthen ANC services and existing NGO’s to facilitate in community-related intervention, upgrading
training on Ante Natal Care, Intrapartum care & Post Partum Care of Health Care workers.
• Detection of HRP or Complication and to be reported on MCP card and Portal.
• Follow complete referral protocol: Prior communication to referral facility
• Emergency Transportation – 104/108, or identified Private Vehicle.

PPH can be prevented by:
• Ensuring BPCR, SBA and treatment of anaemia
• Early identification of prolonged and obstructed
labour by partograph
• Avoiding unnecessary augmentation, fundal
pressure and episiotomies
• Controlled head delivery with perineal support
• Active Management of Third stage of Labour
(AMTSL)
• Checking of completeness of placenta after delivery
27. Way forward
• Catching up on “lost/ missed” ANCs
• Certification of LR and OT under
LaQshya
• Robust implementation of C -Section
audit
• MD reviews & Data feeding in MPCDSR
Software
• Functionalization of MCH wings
• JSSK utilization and Data Entry
• HRP management in PMSMA

Childbirth, maternity and newborn care is not a new topic for you all, given that gynecologists and pediatrician make up the most of todays cohort. What is new is the provision of quality ingrained within this service provision. Why Quality? During childbirth? A major chunk of maternal mortalities, stillbiths and newborn deaths are still happening on the first day of life. Intrapartum high quality of care can avert and prevent these events. Moreover, there is evidence that, Respectful maternity care at the time of birth incurs positive effects on the cognitive growth of a newborn. So today I ll be talking about GoI’s initiative to ensure high quality intrapartum care through the LaQshya initiative as well as an equally ambitious recently launched SUMAN which provides a high quality service guarantee to all PW & newborn visiting a public health facility. SUMAN constitutes an overarching umbrella under whose ambit all the existing MH programs are subsumed and aims at zero preventable maternal and child deaths.
The RMNCHA approach is basically a continuum of care approach through the life cycle of a women. Be it the newborn, child adolescent age or the reproductive age, there is a well defined system in place to provide care and services if required during these phases of life.
