Abstract
Background; Before the gestational age at which a foetus would be viable ex utero, bleeding through the vagina with a closed cervix is referred to as a threatened abortion, Aim and objectives; to assess how threatened abortion affects foetal growth, early membrane rupture, and other unfavourable pregnancy outcomes like abortion and preterm labour, preeclampsia, placenta Previa, IUGR and cesarean section, Subjects and methods; This prospective case-control study was carried out during a six-month period, from January 4, 2021, to January 10, 2021. One hundred pregnant women participated in the current study. They were split into two groups: Group 1 (Cases), which consisted of 100 women who presented with signs of an impending abortion at or before 20 weeks of gestation and underwent an ultrasound examination as a result. 100 women in Group 2 (Controls), who do not exhibit any signs of an impending abortion, Result; Regarding past abortions, there is a big disparity between the groups. Preterm labour, newborn sepsis, and NICU admission differ significantly amongst the groups.Conclusion; a threatened miscarriage is linked to a higher rate of negative pregnancy results. The risk is increased by premature membrane rupturing, preterm birth, and low birth weight for newborns.
