Background: Spontaneous abortion is defined as a clinically recognized pregnancy loss before the 20th week of gestation, or an expulsion of an embryo weighing 500 g or less. .Pregnancy is a condition of hypercoagulation. study aimed to evaluate the change of platelet indices namely platelet count, platelet crit , platelet distribution width and mean platelet volume among patients . Methods: This study is observational case control study . participants were 135 and divided into three groups Group1: 45 women with spontaneous abortion. Group2: 45 women with recurrent pregnancy loss.Group3: 45 normally pregnant women Results At cut off 14.12, platelet distribution width diagnose abortion (P=0.008) with sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and accuracy of 74.4%, 53.3%, 76.1%, 51.1%, 67.4% respectively.At cut off 6.98, Mean platelet volume diagnose abortion (P=0.002) with sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and accuracy of 76.7%, 44.4%, 75.0%, 57.1%, 70.4% respectively. At cut off 0.31, Platelet crit diagnose abortion with sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and accuracy of 31.1%, 97.8%, 96.6%, 41.5%, 53.3% respectively. There were univariate regression for value of platelet indices in prediction of abortion in the studied sample. Conclusions: Platelet indices are markers for the prediction of spontaneous abortion and recurrent pregnancy loss
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
