India is suffering from an outbreak of COVID-19. Lockdown rules were enacted, but they were also a significant threat to the economy, mental and environmental health. Continual depreciation is occurring in the Indian rupee. The tourism, aviation, oil, capital, and retail markets were seriously affected. Whereas, a unique opportunity has also been offered to India as multinational companies are losing trust with China. COVID-19 has also caused a severe threat to people's physical and mental health. World Health Organization also implemented compulsion of mask wearing and awareness in local communities. The efforts to combat Coronavirus output a tremendous amount of masks, gloves, and personal protective equipment kit waste. After the declaration of the lockdown, the quality of air and water has started to improve and wildlife has sprung back. But all these positive impacts were temporary. Implementation of proper strategies has the potential to deal with all three aspects.
Placental abruption complicates about 1% of singleton pregnancies and is an important cause of perinatal mortality and morbidity. Though sensitivity and reliability of ultrasound are poor for detecting or excluding placental abruption, because of the advances in ultrasound resolution, imaging and interpretation, sensitivity of ultrasound is better than what was reported previously. To determine the diagnostic performance of Aim: Ultrasonography (USG) for the detection of placental abruption and whether sonographic results correlate with maternal and foetal management and outcome Sixty patients with clinical diagnosis of placental abruption we Materials and Methods: re studied in the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department of Gujarat Adani Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhuj over a period of 6 months. These patients underwent ultrasonography for conrmation. Obstetric and neonatal outcome and sonographic results were compared and reviewed. Sonographic sensitivity and specicity and positive and negative predictive values were calculated. Incidence of abruption in present study was 3.05% (56 Results: patients out of 1834 total deliveries). Sensitivity of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of abruption was 57% while its specicity was 100% with a positive predictive value of 100% and a 14% negative predictive value. An 87.5% of patients(28 out of 32) with a positive USG nding of abruption had Intrauterine foetal Death (IUD)/still birth while 91.6% of patients (22 out of 24) with negative USG ndings of abruption gave birth to babies who required NICU admission. Sonography has a poor sensitivity for diagnosing placental abrupt Conclusion: ion, even though it has a high specicity and PPV. In a positive sonographic result, maternal morbidity and perinatal mortality are high which needs aggressive obstetric management as compared to the normal sonography. In case of a negative sonographic nding but a strong clinical suspicion of abruption if Obstetric intervention is made in due time, foetal as well as maternal outcome are better
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.
