Antepartum haemorrhage is one of the important causes of perinatal mortality and morbidity in India. The increased risk of perinatal morbidity and mortality in placenta praevia is due to preterm birth, low birth weight, birth asphyxia and neonatal sepsis. The study was conducted to study incidence, risk factors associated with placenta previa and to assess the feto-maternal outcome of placenta previa. It was a descriptive cross-sectional study. This study was conducted in Bankura Sammilani Medical College, Bankura, West Bengal from February 2020 to July 2021. This study was conducted among 92 pregnant women who are diagnosed as a case of placenta previa or operated cases of placenta previa. Pregnant women who were fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included in this study. Statistical data were analysed by using Microsoft Excel and SPSS V.20 software. Study shows that mean age was 25.30±3.60 years, mean GA was 33.74±SD 2.48 weeks. Study shows that 10 (10.87%) were 4th gravidae mother. It shows that 68 (74%) didn’t have any history of previous caesarean section. Study shows that 42 (46%) have used 2 units blood, 16 (17%) have used 3 or more units of blood transusion. This study shows that 75 (81.5%) have live baby, 17 (18.5%) have still born baby and 31 (33%) newborns were admitted at NICU. Study shows that 44 (47.8%) newborn were healthy. Whereas, 5 (5.4%) newborn have been suffered from RDS and 26 (28.3%) have LBW. Placenta previa accounts approximately 0.5% of all deliveries but still remains major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. As the maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality due to placenta previa is preventable, efforts should be made to bring down these rates. Along with the development of neonatal intensive care unit appears to have great contribution to the dramatic reduction in the perinatal complications in placenta previa.
