Variouss factors have been correlated with the outcome of APH by various authors. Aims and Objective: to study the effect of various factors influencing outcome in APH.

Out of them 45 were of abruption placentae and 14 were of placenta prevea. Perinatal death was found maximum (84.85%) in un booked ANCs. Preterm deliveries were also found to be influencing the perinatal mortality.
