All details of the patients like parity, associated factors if any and outcome of foetus and neonate were recorded. Result: The majority of the patients were Nulliparaous i.e. 48.21 %, Primipara were 21.43%, Para two were 16.07%, Para three were 12.50 %, Para four were 1.79. The most common associated factors were Post maturity > 42 weeks were 30.36%, Prolonged pregnancy 40-42 weeks-19.64%, PIH-16.07%, PROM -12.50%, Chronic abruption-8.93%, Chronic renal failure-7.14%, Idiopathic-5.36%. The most common foetal outcome were Preterm birth in 41.07%, followed by IUGR in 30.36%, LBW in 19.64%, Abortion in 5.36%, IUD in 3.57%. The most common Neonatal illness were Respiratory distress syndrome - 32.14%, Sepsis - 23.21%, NICU Admission -19.64, Intracranial bleed - 16.07%, Low APGAR - 8.93%. Conclusion: It can be concluded from our study that most common associated factors were Post maturity, Prolonged pregnancy, PIH, PROM, Chronic abruption, Chronic renal failure etc. The most common foetal outcome were Preterm birth, IUGR, LBW, Abortion, IUD.
