Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 5
Abstract
Aim: To compare ultrasonic placental grading in hypertension in pregnancy with normotensive pregnancy and correlate with foetal outcome. Material And Method: In this prospective study 200 pregnant patients were selected from indoor and outdoor Dept. of Obstetrics & Gynaecology. 100 pregnant patients with pre-eclampsia were selected as study group and 100 normotensive pregnant patients as control group. Result: In the study group 3%, 54% and 43% women had placental grades I, II & III respectively as against 8%, 61% and 31% of the control group women respectively. Preterm delivery <37 weeks gestational age was 28% in study group and 15% in control group. However grade III changes in <37 weeks gestational age in study group was 23.3% and 9.7% in control group. In >37 weeks gestational age grade III placental changes was 76.7% in study group and 90.3% in control group. Spontaneous delivery was higher in control group 71% compared to study group 50% which is statistically significant. Induced delivery and caesarean section was more in study group compared to control group. Birth asphyxia was observed in all placental grades in study group. Conclusion: Earlier knowledge of placental grade can decrease the risk of perinatal death by timely intervention. It can also predict pregnancy induced hypertension so proper intervention can be made.
