AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Placental abruption occurs when the placenta separates from the inner wall of the uterus before birth. Placental abruption can deprive the baby of oxygen and nutrients and cause heavy bleeding in the mother. In some cases, early delivery is needed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Placental abruption means the placenta has detached from the wall of the uterus, either partly or totally. This can cause bleeding in the mother and may interfere with the baby’s supply of oxygen and nutrients.

Detailed explanation-3: -The placenta, or afterbirth, is the first organ that forms–even before any of your baby’s organs–after you conceive. It plays an important role in your pregnancy: It connects you and your baby in the uterus and delivers oxygen, nutrients, and hormones to them.

Detailed explanation-4: -Q: What’s the difference between placenta abruptio and placenta previa? A: With placenta abruptio, the placenta partially or completely detaches itself from the uterine wall before delivery. With placenta previa, the placenta is located over or near the cervix, in the lower part of the uterus.

Detailed explanation-5: -A partial placental abruption occurs when the placenta does not completely detach from the uterine wall. A complete or total placental abruption occurs when the placenta completely detaches from the uterine wall. There is usually more vaginal bleeding associated with this type of abruption.
