What are the Public Health Implications?

The widespread implementation of AMTSL has significant public health implications. By reducing the incidence of PPH, AMTSL can decrease maternal mortality rates and improve overall maternal health. This is particularly important in low-resource settings, where maternal mortality rates are highest. Public health strategies should focus on strengthening health systems, training healthcare providers, and ensuring the availability of uterotonic drugs to maximize the benefits of AMTSL.
