Three meetings and fewer funerals–misoprostol in postpartum haemorrhage

Abstract: 

This commentary article refers to the meeting of theInternational Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) in Santiago, Chile in 2003, which made reducing post-partum hemorrhage a priority, and two meetings supported by Venture Strategies in May and July 2004 in Kampala, Uganda and Nairobi, Kenya, which took the first steps toward meeting that goal.
