20242 citationsOpen accessBahir Dar University

Abstract

In this study, mortality after caesarean section was higher than in high-income countries. Implementation of targeted interventions focusing on the prevention and management of maternal bleeding, along with the consistent use of the WHO surgical safety checklist, could potentially contribute to improving the overall safety and outcomes of caesarean sections.
