Abstract
Our case-control study, aiming at identifying the risk factors for placental abruption (PA), looked at variables including maternal age, daily transportation means, folic acid consumption, smoking, past-history of infertility, number of antenatal visits done, presence of pre-eclampsia and umbilical cord insertion. Significant risk factors for PA were frequent transportation by motorbikes, consumption of haematinic preparation not containing folic acid, passive smoking, past-history of infertility, pre-eclampsia and marginal cord insertion. Pregnant women should be counselled about the above-mentioned risk factors.
