THE EFFECT OF GIVING OXYTOCIN DRIPS ON BLEEDING IN THE IV STAGE OF LABOR AT RSKDIA SITI FATIMAH MAKASSAR

Abstract

Background: Maternal mortality of childbearing age in 2015 was 195 per 100,000 live births. Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) target: Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) in Indonesia in 2015 must reach 125 per 100,000 live births. In fact, the SDG's target states that by 2030 it is hoped that maternal deaths will be less than 70 per 100,000 live births2.  This has not been achieved because based on surveys, the MMR is still 305 per 100,000 live births. This figure is still in contrast to the increasing coverage of services for pregnant, maternity and postpartum mothers. K1 health service coverage is 95.75% and K4 coverage is 87.48% and coverage of birth assistance by health workers is 79.13%.Research Method: This research uses the Cross Sectional Study method with a type of research that emphasizes the measurement/observation of independent and dependent variable data at one time. Research Results: Based on the results of the chi-square analysis, the value p = 0.024 is smaller than α = 0.05, this means that Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. Thus, there is an effect of administering oxytocin drips on bleeding in the fourth stage of labor.
