A Prospective Clinical Study on Pregnancy With Abruptio Placentae in Women Attending a Tertiary Care Centre of Central India

Abstract

Background- Placental abruption is a relatively rare but serious complication of pregnancy and placed the well-being of both mother and fetus at risk. Placental abruption is also called abruptio placentae. The estimated incidence is around 1% of all pregnancies. Despite being a relatively rare occurrence, placental abruption needs urgent intervention. Most placental abruptions happen before 37 weeks of pregnancy. Maternal morbidity and neonatal mortality are primarily caused by placental abruption. Despite the fact that blood transfusions are available, maternal deaths are nonetheless uncommon and higher than the overall maternal mortality rate. Preterm birth, low birth weight, perinatal hypoxia, stillbirth, and neonatal mortality are all neonatal consequences. Even with better prenatal care and monitoring methods, the rate of placental abruption has been rising in several nations. The present study Material and Method- is a prospective study done in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, M.G.M Medical College and M.Y Hospital, Indore, over a period of 1 year from March 2021 to February 2022.. All cases are admitted in Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, M.G.M Medical College and M.Y Hospital, Indore. The study will include prospective cases for 1 year from ethics committee Inclusion Criteria- 1. All cases of concealed and revealed abruption with gestational age > 28 weeks till term. 2. All abruption with clinical symptoms of sudden onset abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding and uterine tenderness 3. All patients of abruptio placentae diagnosed on USG ndings. Exclusion Criteria- 1. All patients who come with the history of Ante partum hemorrhage but are having local (vaginal/cervical)causes excluded. 2. All patients referred to the hospital for the management of post-partum complications. 3. All other causes of APH like placenta previa and other extra placental causes. Result- Majority of the study population were booked multigravida in the age group of 26-30 years of low socioeconomic status with B+ blood group with anemia and gestational hypertension as risk factors.Most of them underwent LSCS with Shock and sepsis as complications 80% study participants had live and healthy baby. 20% had perinatal death. 47.9% of the babies were low birth weight and 25% required resuscitation Without a doubt, abruptio placent Conclusion- ae is a potentially serious obstetric condition that has the potential to threaten mother health and wellbeing, foetal viability, neonatal mortality, and morbidity. We found that important risk factors for abruptio placenta are multiparty, unbooked status, living in a rural area, maternal anaemia, and hypertension and also it is independent risk factor for perinatal mortality. From the present study we conclude that to prevent and lessen the severity of the situation early intervention, prompt delivery, and strengthening of safe motherhood services, particularly in remote regions will be helpful.
