Background: Subamniotic hemorrhage is a rare lesion with abnormal ultrasonographic findings that caused by placental abruption. We report the case of patient abruption who presented antepartum bleeding in whom ultrasound subamniotic were detected. This resulted early diagnosis, leading to favorable clinical outcome this patient. Case: A primigravid 35-year-old woman visited emergency room due v...

BACKGROUND Although rare, placental abruption is implicated in disproportionately high rates of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Understanding geographic and temporal variations may provide insights into possible amenable factors of abruption. We examined abruption frequencies by maternal age, delivery year, and maternal birth cohorts over three decades across seven countries. METHODS Women...

Administration of heparin in the secondary prevention of placental vascular complications is still experimental. In women with a previous placental abruption, we investigated the effectiveness of enoxaparin, a low-molecular-weight heparin, in preventing these complications. Between January 2000 and January 2009, 160 women from the NOHA First cohort, with previous abruptio placentae but no foeta...

the scientific literature regarding threatened abortion is relatively limited on the subject of outcomes and viability at term. to investigate prospectively the risk of adverse pregnancy outcome in women presenting with first-trimester threatened miscarriage, a prospective case control study was performed on 600 subjects, 150 women presenting with bleeding in the first trimester and 450 asympto...

(Abstracted from N Engl J Med 2022;386:1781–1792) Chronic hypertension affects >2% of pregnancies in the United States and disproportionately Black women. The condition is also associated with an increased risk adverse neonatal outcomes, including preeclampsia, placental abruption, preterm birth, small for gestational age (SGA), or perinatal death, maternal heart failure, stroke, pulmonary edem...

Overt hyperthyroidism is associated with miscarriage, stillbirth, preterm delivery, intrauterine growth restriction, low birth weight, preeclampsia and fetal thyroid dysfunction. Overt hypothyroidism is associated with anaemia, pregnancy-induced hypertension, preeclampsia, placental abruption, postpartum haemorrhage, premature birth, low birth weight, intrauterine fetal death, increased neonata...

Intrapartum hemorrhage is a serious and sometimes life-threatening event. Several etiologies are known and include placental abruption, uterine atony, placenta accreta, and genital tract lacerations. Prompt recognition of blood loss, identification of the source of the hemorrhage, volume resuscitation, including red blood cells and blood products when required, will result in excellent maternal...
