Objectives: We studied the clinical management and prognosis of pregnant women with a history of abruption, as well as the associated risk factors.
Methods: We reviewed the cases of 23 patients with a history of abruption and 66 patients with abruption.
Results: The recurrence rate of abruption was 4.3%. Intentional care prolonged gestational age in most patients. Although the incidence of abruption was low (0.44%), the consequences could be perinatal death and maternal disseminated vascular coagulation (DIC).
Conclusion: To prevent abruption recurrence, careful monitoring during hospitalization is important. Both clinical findings and transabdominal echography are useful in diagnosing abruption.
