Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Abruptio placentae is a condition where the placenta separates from the uterine wall before the baby is delivered. This can be dangerous for both the mother and baby, as it can cause bleeding, premature labor, and a compromised blood supply to the baby. Ectopic pregnancy is when the fertilized egg implants outside of the uterus, placenta previa is when the placenta covers the cervix, and eclampsia is a serious complication of high blood pressure during pregnancy.
