Oxytocin (10 IU, IV/IM) is the recommended uterotonic drug for the prevention of PPH. In settings where oxytocin is unavailable, the use of other injectable uterotonics (if appropriate ergometrine/methylergometrine or the fixed drug combination of oxytocin and ergo- metrine) or oral misoprostol (600 μg) is recommended. In settings where skilled birth attendants are not present and oxytocin is unavailable, the administration of misoprostol (600 μg PO) by community health care workers and lay health workers is recommended for the prevention of PPH. Filename Controlled cord traction 13 In settings where skilled birth attendants are available, CCT is recommended for vaginal births if the care provider and the parturient woman regard a small reduction in blood loss and a small reduction in the duration of the third stage of labour as important In settings where skilled birth attendants are unavailable, CCT is not recommended. Filename Cord clamping 14 Late cord clamping (performed after 1 to 3 minutes after birth) is recommended for all births while initiating simultaneous essential newborn care. (Strong recommendation, moderate- quality evidence) Early cord clamping (<1 minute after birth) is not recommended unless the neonate is as- phyxiated and needs to be moved immediately for resuscitation. (Strong recommendation, moderatequality evidence) Filename Uterine care 15 Sustained uterine massage is not recommended as an intervention to prevent PPH in women who have received prophylactic oxytocin. Postpartum abdominal uterine tonus assessment for early identification of uterine atony is recommended for all women. Oxytocin (IV or IM) is the recommended uterotonic drug for the prevention of PPH in c/section. Controlled cord traction is the recommended method for removal of the placenta in caesarean section… Filename
