1Placental abruption may be associated with maternal intake of cocaine
2. Autoimmune thromocytopenia is the commonest immune cause of APH
3. Placenta praevia is associated with an increased risk of IUGR
4. Placenta praevia is associated with increased risk of prematurity
5. Ruptured uterus is associated with only revealed haemorrhage |

. Few more MCQS on Antepartum haemorrhage
Ruptured uterus is unlikely to be associated with previous myomectomy
2. If there is associated coagulation failure, the platelet count is usually low
3. In coagulopathy, the fibrin degradation products promote coagulation
4. Coagulopathy is usually associated with a rise in thromboplastin
5. APH is associated with an increased risk of PPH
6. Placenta praevia is commoner following previous myomectomy
7. Placental abruption may be associated with folate deficiency |

Some more :
1- Placental abrubtion is associated with :
- Chorioamnionitis.
- Thrombophilia.
2- 35% Placental saparation is associated with significant still birth.
3- 40 % of pl. abrubtion is concealed.
4- US is reliable in diagnosis.

I'll go for True as there might be defective placentation. |

True
Cocaine increases maternal arterial blood pressure, decreases uterine blood flow, and transiently increases fetal systemic blood pressure.
Perinatal complications associated with cocaine :
-Spontaneous abortion and stillbirths
-Placental abruption
-Preterm labor and delivery
-Intrauterine growth retardation
-Fetal hypoxemia and distress
-Fetal vascular accidents
Cocaine-exposed infants manifest neurobehavioral abnormalities initially described as drug withdrawal, but are more likely due to acute intoxication, including:
Perinatal Substance Abuse
-Hypertonicity, irritability, tremors
-Tachycardia
-Abnormal cry, sleep and feeding patterns
- Tachypnea, apnea
Medical management usually involves only behavioral and soothing methods. Signs are present at birth or at a few days of life, and decrease as cocaine and its metabolite, benzoylecgonine, are cleared. |

True -- ultrasound, power amplitude ultrasonic angiography, MRI and colour flow doppler can all detect
