Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: Third trimester bleeding is known as major cause of maternal mortality throughout the world since very ancient times, though its identification and significance has only recently recognized. Variouss factors have been correlated with the outcome of APH by various authors. Aims and Objective: to study the effect of various factors influencing outcome in APH. Materials and Method: Present prospective study was conducted among the pregnant attending ANC OPD. Cases of antepartum hemorrhage were identified and followed up to the delivery. Details of various factors such as age of mother, gestational age at the time of delivery, gravid, severity of bleeding were studied in detail. Results: Total 66 cases of APH were diagnosed. Out of them 45 were of abruption placentae and 14 were of placenta prevea. Perinatal death was found maximum (84.85%) in un booked ANCs. Preterm deliveries were also found to be influencing the perinatal mortality. Other factors influencing the perinatal outcome were severity of bleeding during labour and increasing gravid status of mother. Conclusion: thus we can conclude that perinatal outcome in APH is influenced by un booked pregnancy, multi gravida, preterm delivery, high blood loss during labour
