Hubungan Faktor Risiko Perdarahan Post Partum dengan Kejadian Perdarahan Post Partum di Rumah Sakit Umum Pusat Haji Adam Malik Medan Tahun 2020-2023

Abstract

Introduction. Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a leading cause of maternal mortality in Indonesia. Identifying associated risk factors is crucial for effective prevention. This study aims to examine the relationship between risk factors and PPH incidence at H. Adam Malik General Hospital from 2020 to 2023. Methods. This was an analytical observational study using a cross-sectional design. A total sampling of 70 patients (35 PPH and 35 non-PPH) was obtained from medical records. Data were analyzed using chi-square tests with SPSS. Results. Most PPH patients were aged 20–35 years (64.3%), had a senior high school education (44.3%), and were housewives (48.6%). Only occupation showed a statistically significant association with PPH incidence (p=0.019). Other variables such as age, education, residence, uterine atony, retained placenta, perineal laceration, coagulopathy, delivery history, PPH history, and fetal birth weight were not statistically significant. Conclusion. Among all studied factors, only occupation was significantly associated with PPH incidence. Educational and preventive efforts should focus on housewives to minimize PPH risk.
