Abstract

Background: Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is a quite common factor during pregnancy in under developed
countries. It impairs the coagulation factors of the blood and leads to frequency of pre-term labour and low birth
weight infants
Method: 150 pregnant women having Hb% (gm/dl) less than 10% were compared with 100 normal (controlled)
groups. The haematological and coagulation profile in both patients were studied and compared.
Results: The haematological parameters Hb%, TLC, DLC, MCV,(fl)MCH (pg) MCHC had significant p value
(p<0.001) in both groups comparison. In the study of coagulation profile of both groups comparison except BT
(bleeding time) all values were highly significant.
Conclusion: The present study will be a tool for physician, gynaecologist to treat such patient efficiently to present
morbidity and mortality of mother and infant as well.
