Clinical presentation and risk factors of placental abruption

Abstract: Maternal alcohol consumption and smoking, and smoking by the partner turned out to be independent risk factors for placental abruption. Smoking by both partners multiplied the risk. The liberal use of ultrasound examination contributed little to the management of women with placental abruption.

“…Correlation of placental abruption with both chronic hypertension and preeclampsia has been clearly established (8,(16)(17)(18)(19). Similarly, in our study an association of both chronic hypertension and preeclampsia with abruption was seen, consistent with the literature (p<0.05).…”

“…Undoubtedly, smoking during preg- nancy may be detrimental to both maternal and fetal health. Smoking is associated with preterm birth and preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), placenta abruption, placenta previa-accreta, intrauterine fetal growth retardation, and sudden infant death syndrome (32)(33)(34)(35)(36). Despite the adverse effects of smoking on maternal-fetal health, numerous studies demonstrate that smoking is protective against PIH (1-6).…”
