dc.description.abstract | Every year, around 14 million women suffer from
postpartum hemorrhage, according to the World
Health Organization (WHO) . A total blood loss of
1,000 mL or more with concomitant hypovolemia
within the first 24 hours after giving delivery is
characterized as postpartum hemorrhage .
A serious hemorrhage is defined as a blood loss of
more than 3,000 milliliters . Although postpartum
hemorrhage can be lethal , it has been on the
decline for the past two decades. The decrease in
mortality has resulted in a surge in the recognition
and diagnosis of Sheehan's Syndrome (SS) ,
an uncommon consequence of postpartum
hemorrhage ]1[. . | en_US |
