Postpartum hemorrhage, occurring in 153 patients, is categorized according to etiology, predisposing conditions, and severity. Ruptured uterus is considered as a cause of postpartum hemorrhage, with an incidence of 7.1% overall and 11.9% in patients with severe hemorrhage. The effectiveness and complications of the uterine pack, used in 33 patients, are evaluated.
