    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-08-28) Herrera Zelada, Liliana Yesenia; Caldas Herrera, Maria Evelina
    Objective: Determine the scientific evidence on the characteristics of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) in Peru. Material and Methods: A qualitative narrative review was conducted, including articles published in indexed journals such as Redalyc, Scielo, and Elsevier. A total of 22 articles met the rigor criteria. Results: According to clinical evidence, 41% of women over 35 years old developed PPH, while 55% of those with fewer than six prenatal checkups also experienced PPH. The main pathological conditions associated with PPH were uterine atony (12%), retained membranes (8%), cervical laceration (4%), coagulation disorders (5%), history of PPH (7%), anemia (11%), uterine rupture (2%), and preeclampsia (3%). Conclusions: Scientific evidence indicates clinical and pathological characteristics that contribute to the development of postpartum hemorrhage.
