Despite significant progress, the leading cause of maternal death worldwide is postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). To address the considerable burden of PPH and maternal mortality in Malawi, Advancing Postpartum Hemorrhage Care (APPHC) Partners implemented a simulation-based intervention for providers, developed by PRONTO International, using an innovative, evidence-based approach to improve the management of maternal and newborn emergencies. The goal of this simulation intervention was to support frontline health providers through building their capacity and confidence in managing obstetric conditions and complications, helping them reflect on their work, manage stress, and feel respected in their roles in order to improve the quality of care, particularly of the prevention and treatment of PPH.
