Abstract

Lateral placentation was found to show statistically signicant association between lateral placentation and pre-eclampsia, therefore these pregnancies may need cautious obstetric management to ensure a better maternal and perinatal outcome. This study aims to establish whether laterally located placenta in ultrasonography can be taken as a predictor of pre-eclampsia.This prospective descriptive study was conducted in OBG department of Saveetha Medical College and Hospitals, Thandalam from JANUARY 2022 to June 2022. A total of 50 low-risk women with singleton pregnancy underwent ultrasonography to locate the placenta. These cases were followed for the development of signs and symptoms of pre-eclampsia. In this study the calculated sensitivity of lateral placenta for prediction of pre-eclampsia was 75%, specicity of 70.6%, PPV (positive predictive value) was found to be 54.5% %, NPV (negative predictive value) was 85.7%. We concluded that there is considerable relation between placental lateralisation and development of pre-eclampsia, hence Ultrasonography is a fairly straightforward, non-invasive, affordable, simple to use, and widely accessible diagnostic technique to spot patients at risk.
