Introduction: Oligohydramnios is a serious condition to maternal and fetal health. It is a clinical condition that is characterized by a sonographic amniotic fluid index (AFI) of 5cm. The current study was carried out in a government tertiary care hospital to investigate maternal and perinatal outcomes in oligohydramnios. Material and Methods: Present study was a hospital-based, cross-sectional, observational study conducted from July 2019 to June 2020 among pregnant women admitted in the labor room/ antenatal ward at Govt. Tertiary care Hospital with gestational age more than 37 weeks and AFI ≤ 5 cms. Study Outcomes were induced or spontaneous labor, mode of delivery, APGAR score at 1, 5 min, birth weight, NICU admission, and perinatal death. Data was collected in a Microsoft excel sheet and analyzed accordingly. Data is presented as frequencies and proportions. Results: After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria total of 170 patients were included in the present study. The most common age group in our study was of 21- 25 years (66.5 %), followed by 26-30 years age group (21.2 %). In the present study 62.4 % of patients in our study were primigravida, 35.3% were G2-G5 patients.
Background: Abruptio placenta is defined as preterm separation of normally implanted placenta and causes high maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. The present study was done to determine the risk factors for abruption planceta and to evaluate its impact on perinatal and maternal outcomes. Materials & Methods: This retrospective study was carried on 135 cases of Abruptio placenta between January 2019 and September 2020 at Govt. Medical College & Hospital, Nizamabad after obtaining ethical clearance from the institution. In all cases risk factors, maternal and fetal outcome were recorded. The results of studies were recorded in percentage and frequencies and analyzed by SPSS-16 software. Results: The total number of deliveries from January 2019 and September 2020 at Govt. Medical College & Hospital, Nizamabad were 13600, out of which 135 cases were found to be Abruption. The Incidence of Abruptio placenta was 1%. It was most common in the women of age group 25-30 yrs. We found 25% of patients were associated with severe preeclampsia & eclampsia, 23% patients with chronic hypertension and 33.42% patients with normotensive. DIC occurred in 25% of cases & PPH accounts for 28% of the maternal complications.
