Abstract

Back ground Proper placental development is essential for a successful pregnancy. An important organ, the placenta carries out several physiological, immunological, and endocrine functions. It also performs vital roles in mediating the exchange of gasses, nutrients, and waste products between the fetal circulation and the physically separate mother circulation.

Aims: The purpose of the study was to evaluate how placental maturity affected the outcomes of pregnancies in Babylon City.

Setting and design: A Babylon City private clinic, a purposefully selected sample of one hundred pregnant patients who received a diagnosis at the private clinic.

Method, material: from medical records, ultrasound scan data, and the creation of a study tool specifically for this investigation.

Statistical analysis used: The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS-20) was used to perform descriptive statistics and correlation analysis on the data. Findings: Of the women who gave birth, 62% had cesarean sections. Preeclampsia, severe preeclampsia, chronic hypertension, and gestational hypertension accounted for 87% of the participants with pregnancy-induced hypertension, while anemia affected 93% of the participants. Among newborns, 80% required resuscitation, 68% were delivered via cesarean section, and 87% were IUGR.

Conclusions: According to the study's findings, 85% of women were between 36 and 39 weeks gestation. Placental grade was correlated with gestational age, resuscitation, stillbirth, gestational hypertension, and the meconium.
