10. Role of ultrasound ā limited
ā¢Negative findings do not exclude
the diagnosis
ā¢U/S is mainly used to confirm fetal
viability, Presentation & position.
ā¢To exclude Placenta praevia

12. Consumptive Coagulopathy
ā¢ Delee (1901) Temporary hemophilia
Parameters: Fibrinogen < 150 mg/dl,
ā¢ elevated FDP, D-dimers, decrease in other
coagulation factors
Mechanism: DIC & retro placental clot
formation
ā¢ Seen in 30% cases of abruption severe
enough to kill the fetus
12
13. Acute Renal failure
ā¢ Pathology: Acute tubular necrosis (75%)
& acute cortical necrosis (25%)
ā¢ Mechanism: Severe hypovolemia , DIC
along with Underlying preeclampsia
ā¢ Prevention: Prompt & vigorous
replacement of blood and circulating blood
volume
13
14. Differential Diagnosis
1. Without pain: Placenta Previa
2. Without Bleeding: Acute degeneration
or torsion of a fibroid, hematoma of
rectus sheath, rupture of an
appendicular abscess.
3. With mild pain & bleeding: Labour with
heavy show
4. Rupture Uterus
14
15. Management
Initial assessment
ā¢ Monitor vital signs: BP ā poor guide to
the extent of bleeding.
ā¢ Mark the fundal height & measure
abdominal girth
ā¢ cardiotocographic monitoring of fetus
Investigations: HB, PCV, blood grouping
& typing, BT CT, Clot retraction & lyses,
DIC profile
ā¢ Foley catheterization & hourly output
chart
ā¢ watch for bleeding 15
16. Management
āSwift & decisiveā
Resuscitate the mother
ā¢ Start an IV line, transfuse Ringer lactate, N
Saline
ā¢ Two lines if bleeding is severe
ā¢ Replace blood loss and maintain circulation
ā¢ Maintain PCV at 30% & urine output >30
ml/hr.
ā¢ CVP in difficult cases
ā¢ Delivery
16
17. Management
Caesarian section
ā¢ Live & mature fetus
ā¢ Delivery not imminent
ā¢ Fetal distress
ā¢ No response to induction of labour
ā¢ Bleeding
17
19. Management
Expectant line of management
ā¢ Doubtful diagnosis
ā¢ Minor abruption
ā¢ Preterm gestation
ā¢ Intensive surveillance & Induction at
or before term
19
20. Perinatal mortality
ā¢ Main danger is to the fetus. If the
abruption is severe enough to threaten the
mother, the fetus will usually be dead
25 fold increase in PMR
ā¢ Still birth
ā¢ Prematurity
ā¢ Hypoxia
ā¢ Cerebral palsy
20
22. Maternal mortality
Case report: woman, who seemed well
enough to wait in an emergency dept for 2
hrs. When the doctor saw her at the end
of this time she was dead!!!
āa fit woman may be able to compensate
for severe hemorrhage until collapse
occurs as a terminal eventā
ā¢ A reminder ā need to maintain high
standards in obstetric care
