Surveys were conducted across 38 purposively sampled facilities (January 2020\u2013March 2021) to collect information on obstetric practices related to the management of the third stage of labor, treatment of postpartum hemorrhage, and clinical outcomes related to postpartum hemorrhage in the preceding 12\u00a0months.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The median number of annual births per facility was 2230 (IQR, 1952\u20133283). The cesarean section rate was 21.6% (range 2.1%\u201352.6%). There was large variability in PPH rate (median 3%, range 0.4%\u201316.8%) and blood transfusions for PPH (median 2.8%, range 0.4%\u201348.6%) after vaginal birth. There was less variability for laparotomies (median 0.25%, range 0%\u20132.8%) and maternal deaths (median 0.11%, range 0%\u20130.64%) due to PPH after vaginal birth. The number of maternal deaths from all causes varied (median 0.27%, range 0%\u20133.5%).
