Description
Background: Expectant females should be given careful attention and treated as soon as feasible for thrombo-cytopenia and anaemia since these conditions are a significant contributor to mother and peri-natal morbidity and mortality. Aims and Objectives: Therefore, the purpose of the current research was to identify the frequency of anaemia and gestational thrombo-cytopenia in expectant females. Materials and Methods: This research, which included 220 expectant patients who visited the department of obstetrics and gynecology’s outpatient clinic and hospital wards over the course of nine months, was cross-sectional in nature. To assess platelet and hemoglobin levels, a blood sample was drawn at random for peripheral blood film and hemoglobin count. Results: The average age of females who were expectant was 24.29 ± 3.33 years. The majority of the research participants are from rural areas, are working professionals, and are in their second tri-mester of gestation. In this research, anaemia and thrombo-cytopenia were found to be prevalent at rates of 67% and 19%, respectively. Conclusion: Prenatal care must include screening for platelet and hemoglobin count, health education, and dietary assessment since thrombo-cytopenia and anaemia are serious warning signs for both the mother and the unborn child.
