Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Postpartum hemorrhage scores within first 24 hours ( primary Postpartum hemorrhage) in pictorial blood loss assessment chart. Timepoint: First 24 hours after intervention. Method of measurement: The method of measuring the Postpartum hemorrhage is the standard pictorial blood loss assessment chart. This tool is a table that shows the days of bleeding in horizontal and bloodstain pads or tampons or clots in vertical rows. Bloody pads or tampons divide to three degrees: mild with 1 score, moderate with 5 score and severe with 20 score. Small and large clots gain 1 and 5 scores, respectively. Women mark table after changing their pads every time within 24 hours after birth. At the end of 24 hours the final scores will be calculated. The cut-off score of severe bleeding is 100 and more. The validity and reliability of PBAC have been proven in numerous studies.
