Launched in 2005, the Postpartum Hemorrhage Prevention and Treatment website describes the work of the USAID-funded Prevention of Postpartum Hemorrhage Initiative (POPPHI) Project. The project's goal was to expand active management of the third stage of labor as a means to reduce postpartum hemorrhage, the single most important cause of maternal deaths worldwide. In addition to information about the project itself, the website offers a collection of information and resources related to postpartum hemorrhage and how to save women's lives through use of active management of the third stage of labor.
