![Page 22: Antepartum Haemorrhage (APH). MCQs 1.Placenta Accreta A.The optimum management is Caesarean hysterectony B.Is commonly associated with placenta praevia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061315/56649e2f5503460f94b1f185/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Definition
Placenta previa is a condition in which the placenta is attached in lower uterine segment close to or covering the cervix
![Page 23: Antepartum Haemorrhage (APH). MCQs 1.Placenta Accreta A.The optimum management is Caesarean hysterectony B.Is commonly associated with placenta praevia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061315/56649e2f5503460f94b1f185/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
PathophysiologyPlacenta usually implants at fundus
Fundal blood supply is better than lower uterus
Risk factors Previous C Section, myomectomy Associated with placenta accreta High parity Multiple Gestation – large placenta Previous uterine instrumentation – D&C, E&CPast history of placenta previa
![Page 24: Antepartum Haemorrhage (APH). MCQs 1.Placenta Accreta A.The optimum management is Caesarean hysterectony B.Is commonly associated with placenta praevia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061315/56649e2f5503460f94b1f185/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Pathophysiology
Associated Conditions• Abnormal presentation (placenta raises
presenting part)• Oblique Lie• Transverse Lie
• Placental Abruption• Intrauterine Growth Retardation (IUGR)• Placenta accreta (especially prior C
section)• Postpartum Haemorrhage
![Page 25: Antepartum Haemorrhage (APH). MCQs 1.Placenta Accreta A.The optimum management is Caesarean hysterectony B.Is commonly associated with placenta praevia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061315/56649e2f5503460f94b1f185/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
TypesType I: low implantation
• Lower margin dips into lower uterine segment• Does not reach internal os
Type II: marginal placentaReaches but does not cover internal os,
Type III: partial previa• Covers internal os when closed• Does not cover os when fully dilated
Type IV: complete previa (central previa)• Covers internal os even when fully
dilated
