Abstract

Many pregnancy-related deaths remain preventable, particularly those associated with postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). The use of bundles for care of women during the perinatal period has been shown to improve maternal and neonatal outcomes. Drills or simulation-based learning are an integral part of a broader implementation of postpartum hemorrhage bundles. In addition, The Joint Commission has cited drills as one of the required performance elements of accreditation. It is therefore incumbent upon perinatal clinical teams to conduct PPH simulations as a readiness tool. This article is intended to help nurses and other clinicians enhance the realism of low- and medium-fidelity PPH simulations.
