Postpartum Question

Just wanted to make sure that I have this info right: Normal blood loss after delivery is 200-400 for vag and 700-1000 for csection. HCT drops 2-3 points with 500 ml of blood loss and a patients HCT needs to be 20% or higher after delivery or there is a problem. Do I have that info correct? My notes are kind of a mess on this section for some reason. Thanks for the help!

    700-1000 ebl for a C/S is excessive. an EBL of 1000 is technically considered a postpartum hemorrhage.
