The causes of APH are placenta previa, abruption placentae, local causes and vasa previa. Aims and Objectives: To study the demographic profile and maternal and perinatal outcome in antepartum haemorrhage. Material and Methods: It is a retrospective study done at a tertiary care centre in Haryana over a period of seven months. Case files of 140 patients of antepartum haemorrhage were studied for various parameters and analyzed. Results: Total deliveries were 6227 during the study period, out of which abruption placentae cases were 51.43% and placenta previa were 48.57%. Three maternal death were reported due to abruption placentae and one was due to placenta previa. Perinatal mortality was 68.96% due to abruptio placentae and 16.96% was due to placenta praevia.
