Postpartum hemorrhage is the leading cause of maternal extreme morbidity and mortality worldwide. Decreasing adverse events derived from this pathology depends on a timely identification and an adequate treatment. This review focuses on evidence-based recommendations for non-surgical medical treatment provided by different national and international organizations. A search for scientific literature in three databases -Pubmed, Lilacs and Embase- was performed. Articles on evidence-based clinical practice guidelines, systematic reviews and comparison of recommendations given by different guidelines were selected. As a result seven clinical practice guidelines, one systematic review and two clinical trials were selected. The recommendations for the medical treatment of postpartum hemorrhage presented in this work are based on those articles.

Palabras clave : Postpartum Hemorrhage; Therapeutics; Practice Guidelines as Topic.
