Knowledge and skills on active management of third stage of labor for prevention of post-partum haemorrhage among health care providers in Lake Zone, Tanzania: a cross sectional study.

HCPs included in this study demonstrated low skills on AMTSL as compared to knowledge which needs immediate attention. We recommend continuous in-service training and supportive supervision among HCPs working in labour wards for improving their knowledge and skills on AMTSL. This will help to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality related to PPH.
