Abstract

Background: Postpartum Hemorrhage is commonly defined as a blood loss of 500 ml or more within 24 hours after birth Antepartum hemorrhage is defined as bleeding from or in to the genital tract, occurring from 24 weeks of pregnancy and prior to the birth of the baby.

Results: The results showed that the mean± SD of age, PT, PTT and Platelets in case group were 28.22(± 5.33)years, ( 15.05) (± 1.87) ) second , (32.70) (± 4.41) secondand258.12X103 /µl (±75.22) withP.value,( 0.479), (0.065),(0.051),(0.000) respectively. While the mean± SD of age, PT, PTT and Platelets in control group were 27.33 (± 5.53) years, (14.20) (±1.97) second, 31.54 (± 3.06) second. and 338.56 x103 /µl (± 56.29) respectively.
