A call to action to join the Canadian Obstetric Survey System (CanOSS)

Severe peripartum hemorrhage is a leading cause of serious complications for pregnant individuals in Ontario. To help address this growing challenge, BORN Ontario is partnering with the Canadian Obstetric Survey System (CanOSS) to establish a provincial approach focused on understanding and preventing severe maternal morbidity and mortality events from specific causes.

Beginning with severe peripartum hemorrhage, this work will bring together local clinical and contextual data and clinical expertise to identify the underlying causes of severe maternal morbidity and mortality in Ontario to guide system-wide improvements in care.

Join an upcoming webinar to learn more about CanOSS Ontario, its vision for reducing maternal morbidity and mortality, and opportunities for Ontario birthing facilities to participate as pilot sites for severe peripartum hemorrhage data collection and confidential reviews within the BORN Information System.
