Consensus-based Recommendation 10.E35
As transporting a haemodynamically instable patient is a serious risk, any transportation of such patients as part of the management of PPH must be carefully weighed up, quite apart from the organisational conditions at the facility caring for the patient (or transportation should only be considered after haemodynamic stabilisation). It is important that the facility transferring the patient and the facility accepting the patient agree about timing and staff coverage during transportation of the patient in the run-up to the patient transfer and record what the two facilities have agreed upon in writing 142 .
