Estimated lives saved with use of a uterine balloon tamponade under four modeling scenarios. *See Table 2 for description of assumptions underlying each scenario. An estimated 6547 lives are saved in sub-Saharan Africa in 2018 under the base scenario, equivalent to an 11% reduction in maternal mortality due to postpartum hemorrhage. This scenario assumes that UBT has an efficacy of 70% for stopping hemorrhage
