Abstract: The article in BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology examines trends in severe postpartum haemorrhage (sPPH) among nulliparous women, focusing on non-obstetric PPH trends. The study highlights limitations in data sources and the definition of sPPH, emphasizing the need for caution in diagnosing sPPH based on transfusion status. The authors suggest that further research is needed to develop effective strategies to reduce the risk of PPH.
