Abstract :
Objective: The rate of deficiency of red blood cells in the women having pregnancy and its effectiveness on the mortality and morbidity of unborn baby and mother.
Methodology: The design of this study was retrospective study. This study was conducted in Mayo Hospital Lahore and the duration of this study was from January 2020 to December 2020. The gestational age was not preferred during the selection of the participants. A special organized form was used for the collection of data. Blood chemistry panel test was carried out and the patients found with anaemia were chosen for further research.
Results: 500 women having pregnancy randomly selected were the participants of this research work. Three hundred and seventy-five women were discovered with anaemia. The severity and cause of occurrence were different in the participants. Twenty percent patients were in their first three months of pregnancy period, about twenty-six percent patients were in their second trimester and more than fifty-four percent patients were in their last three months of pregnancy period. A large number of the patients were found with had moderate anaemia and their percentage was 52%. Thirty-six percent patients were found with mild anaemia. Anaemia of serious nature was found in twelve percent patients. The delivery was occurred before time in 9% of cases and the weight of about more than twelve percent new born babies was less than the normal babies. The occurrence of mortality rate in prenatal was more than two percent. Two women had to suffer an instance of sudden interruption while PPH (postpartum haemorrhage) was occurred in fifteen cases.
Conclusions: During pregnancy, women have to face a high occurrence of anaemia especially during the last three months of the pregnancy period. It affects the easy delivery and complicates the matter.
