Postpartum hemorrhage, the first cause of maternal mortality in our country, is responsible for approximately 1/4 of the world's mother deaths, and is defined as a loss of 500 ml or more of blood from genital pathways within the first 24 hours after the birth of the baby, while severe postpartum hemorrhage is 1000 ml. This means a lot of blood loss. The most common causes are uterus atonism, genital tract injuries and plasenta retention. In the treatment, many methods are used, such as the effective application of uterus fundusa massage, the use of agents that contact myometrium, hypogastric or uterus arterial ligation or embolization. However, the first cause of maternal mortality in our country is postpartum hemorrhage. Treatment and care in reducing maternal mortality rates associated with postpartum hemorrhoids also gain importance by evidence-based approaches. In the prevention and treatment of postpartum hemorrhage, a variety of applications for the third stage of birth, pharmacological and surgical approaches are used, but there is no sufficient evidence-based studies in all treatments. In most of the therapeutic approaches to postpartum hemorrhoids, clinical data is seen to be limited. Therefore, this collection aims to identify the current approaches involved in the prevention and treatment of postpartum hemorrhoids and to inform health professionals about the level of competence of the initiatives implemented. by n
