Abstract

The probability of having maternal complications was significantly higher in women with first-trimester threatened miscarriage accompanied either by subchorionic hemorrhage or retroplacental hematoma. The OR of maternal complications in the exposed group was 2.58 (95% CI 1.08-6.14) compared with the unexposed group. Among the maternal complications, women with first-trimester threatened abortion have a significant increased chance of delivering via cesarean section for the first time. In this study, there were no significant differences in the frequency of placental abnormalities, pregnancy induced hypertension or preterm labor between the two groups. Same is true for the perinatal complications and its subdivided groups.
