Preventing Postpartum Hemorrhage in Africa: Moving from Research to Practice
This report summarizes a regional conference on postpartum hemorrhage hosted by the ACCESS Program in partnership with RCQHC, ECSA and POPPHI. Held from 4-7 April 2006 in Entebbe, Uganda, the conference aimed to increase knowledge of the devastating effects of this largely preventable complication and to advance programming in Africa for its prevention and treatment—in support of the Millennium Development Goal to reduce maternal mortality by 75% by 2015.
The report is ideal for use in informing policy development, health systems strengthening and program planning. It contains: summaries of presentations, skills lab sessions and other conference activities; highlights from lively open-floor discussions; selected country action plans; a listing of donor and technical assistance agencies with a PPH-related focus; and highlights and summary of program priorities. (2006) Available in English.
