Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is defined as blood loss from the genital tract of 500 mL or more following a normal vaginal delivery or 1,000 mL or more following a cesarean section. Our study is concerned with nurses and midwives’ knowledge toward prevention and management of PPH, where PPH is a leading cause of maternal deaths globally, contributing to a quarter of the deaths annually.
