Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) contributes significantly to maternal morbidity and mortality. The use of cell salvage has been implemented in operating rooms across the world, but only a limited number of institutions have protocols for use of cell salvage during vaginal hemorrhage at the time of vaginal delivery. Observations suggest that blood salvaged from vaginal delivery is comparable to blood salvaged during cesarean delivery. Using pre-validated protocols of cell salvage, we sought to assess the feasibility and potential benefit of implementing cell salvage in our Labor and Delivery unit in all patients at high risk of hemorrhage.
