Abstract
Obstetrical haemorrhage along with hypertension and sepsis forms deadly triad as a direct cause of maternal mortality. Antepartum haemorrhage seen in 2-5% of all pregnancies. Placenta praevia and placental abruption remain the most common causes of Antepartum haemorrhage. Placental abruption occurs in about 0.5 percent or one in 200 pregnancies. Maternal complications of abruptio placentae include massive blood loss, disseminated intravascular coagulopathy, acute renal failure and less commonly maternal death. Perinatal mortality associated with abruption is as high as 60 percent. An observational study was conducted in high dependency unit of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Govt Medical College and Rajindera Hospital,Patiala to study adverse maternal and fetal outcome and risk factors associated with abruptio Placentae.
