Placental abruption.
Placental abruption complicates about 1% of pregnancies and is a leading cause of vaginal bleeding in the latter half of pregnancy. It is also an important cause of perinatal mortality and morbidity. The maternal effect of abruption depends primarily on its severity, whereas its effect on the fetus is determined both by its severity and the gestational age at which it occurs. Risk factors for a...
متن کاملBreastfeeding and placental abruption.
Case report A 32-year-old woman in her ® fth pregnancy presented at 28 weeks’ gestation with a signi® cant, painless, antepartum haemorrhage (APH). She reported intermittent uterine tightenings and backache over the previous week. Routine ultrasound at 20 weeks’ gestation had shown the placenta to be clear of the cervical os and she had no antenatal problems of note. She was a non-smoker and ha...
متن کاملMaternal blood mitochondrial DNA copy number and placental abruption risk: results from a preliminary study.
Oxidative stress and impaired placental function - pathways implicated in the pathogenesis of placental abruption - have their origins extending to mitochondrial dysfunction. To the best of our knowledge, there are no published reports of associations of placental abruption with circulating mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number - a novel biomarker of systemic mitochondrial dysfunction. This pil...
متن کاملRisk factors of placental abruption
BACKGROUND Placental abruption is one of the most common causes of bleeding during pregnancy. Multiple factors are known to be associated with increase of risk of placental abruption such as alcohol, cocaine use and cigarette smoking. The objective of this study was to identify risk factors for placental abruption in an Iranian women population. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a retrospective case -...
متن کاملSonographic spectrum of placental abruption.
Fifty-seven cases of placental abruption detected by sonography were retrospectively reviewed. The location of hemorrhage was subchorionic in 46 cases (81%), retroplacental in nine cases (16%), and preplacental in two cases (4%). Subchorionic hematomas were more frequently shown in the 33 patients presenting before 20 menstrual weeks (91%) than in the 24 patients presenting after 20 weeks (67%)...
