KORESPONDENSI : The Using of The Cone Bag and The Satisfaction of Delivery Assistants in Measuring Post Partum Bleeding

The maternal mortality rate in Indonesia in 2015 was 305/100,000, which was still below the WHO target of 102/100,000, with the leading cause of death was postpartum haemorrhage. The delay in diagnosis can be caused by a delay in diagnosing postpartum bleeding due to errors in measuring blood loss. The purpose of this study was to determine the satisfaction of birth attendants in measuring postpartum haemorrhage using a cone bag so that the diagnosis of postpartum haemorrhage can be made correctly. This research aims to produce a product in the form of a cone bag as a measuring tool for postpartum haemorrhage. This type of research is a quantitative, quasi-experimental analytical research design. The study was conducted on 60 birth attendants in hospitals/health centres/maternity clinics in Bandar Lampung. The analysis used the T-test. The statistical analysis results showed an effect of the use of a cone bag on the satisfaction of birth attendants in measuring postpartum haemorrhage (p = 0.000). Birth attendants can use cone bags to measure postpartum haemorrhage. Hospitals/health centres/maternity clinics can facilitate cone bags to measure postpartum haemorrhage to provide job satisfaction for birth attendants (nurses/midwives/doctors).
