Length of Maternity Leave and Breastfeeding Outcomes Among Physicians [A284]

Abstract

Subchorionic hematomas occur when there is bleeding between the chorionic membrane and uterine wall. The incidence is approximately 1.3-3.1%. Multiple studies have evaluated subchorionic hematomas and demonstrate inconsistent findings regarding their association with adverse pregnancy outcomes. Our aim in this project was to evaluate whether vaginal bleeding in the presence of a subchorionic hematoma increases adverse pregnancy outcomes.METHODS: This was a retrospective chart review of all pregnant patients who had a first trimester sonogram at our Maternal Fetal Medicine center from 8/2015 to 5/2020. Inclusion criteria included patients with diagnosis of subchorionic hematoma in the first trimester. Exclusion criteria included multiple gestation, vanishing twin, and pregnancies complicated by fetal anomalies or chromosomal abnormalities.
