Abstract

Obstetric haemorrhage is the World’s leading cause of maternal death and accounts for an estimated 127,000 deaths each year. Many pregnant have died during delivery especially in the developing world. Adequate training should be given to the health workers handling the women on bleeding disorders and the control of bleeding.Some pregnant women die during delivery due may be due to lack of experienced medical doctors and midwives and necessary equipment and drugs. Educating the community will play a significant role to decrease maternal morbidity and mortality. As most women live in the rural areas and are most likely to go through the hands of a Traditional birth attendants (TBAs), a comprehensive training program of the TBA should be organized emphasizing on early referral of the women to the different levels of health care settings whenever needed
