The present study corresponds to a documentary type literature review, where sixteen were recovered that met the inclusion criteria described in the methodology. As results, the categories that were based on the process of Kristen Swanson's theory are presented: first category: knowing the patient and the management of PPH, second category: being emotionally present, third category: doing what the woman needs, fourth category : enable to overcome the experience, fifth category: trust the capabilities of the patient.
