what is Placenta Abruption -Nusrat

Placental abruption (also known as abruptio placentae) is a complication of pregnancy, wherein the placental lining has separated from the uterus of the mother.

It occurs in 1% of pregnancies world wide with a fetal mortality rate of 20--40% depending on the degree of separation. Placental abruption is also a significant contributor to maternal mortality.
