Abstract
(Int J Gynaecol Obstet. 2021;154:44–48. doi: 10.1002/ijgo.13505) As postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) has severe maternal outcomes and accounts for almost 20% of maternal deaths in low-income countries, decreasing the risk of PPH is critical. One way to help prevent the incidence of PPH is administering oxytocin immediately following delivery and repeating the dose as needed. Oxytocin degrades at increased temperatures, so storing it at temperatures between (2 and 8°C) is recommended, yet optimal storage conditions can be difficult in tropical, low-income countries. This study aims to establish oxytocin storage conditions in a tropical climate within a low-income country.
