Background: During gestational period, the most common disorder is hypertension that directly affects the gestation. The frequency of gestational hypertension is increasing day by day and ultimately the pressure is developed on the endothelial wall. Gestational hypertension mostly reduces the platelet counts.
Aim of Study: The major theme of this research is evaluating the count of platelet during pregnancy and other gestational conditions.
Methodology: A Retrospective research was carried out for the period of 06 months at Gynae and Obstetrics ward at tertiary care hospital of Sindh, Pakistan. Total 104 females were selected with different gestational age and trimester. A questionnaire was filled by all participants that were comprised of demographic data and gestational conditions such as preeclampsia, eclampsia, parity and seizure episodes. Females with highest risk factors diseases such as Diabetes, Hepatic disorder, Anemia, renal disorder and cardio vascular disease were not included in our research. Blood samples were collected from all selected participants for proper platelet count and data was compared with normal ranges of platelet count among the pregnant females. Data was analyzed by using statistical software 24.00 versions.
Results: It was observed that 49 patients were having normal pregnancy, 32 had preeclampsia and 23 had eclampsia. 38 participants were first timer & 52 were having second time parity. 58 participants had 2nd trimester of pregnancy. According to condition of anemia, 27 had severe anemic condition whereas 43 had moderate anemic condition. 49 participants had reduced level of platelet count and 17 had very low platelet count. Severity of gestation can be managed through proper management and physician instructions. Hypertension was measured through severity scale, 29 patients had moderate level of hypertension and 22 had severe level of hypertension. 19 participants had very abnormal level of blood count.
Conclusion: It was concluded that proper diagnostic test should be conducted on time for proper management of reduced platelet count and there should be proper mass counseling should be conducted in order to overcome the deficiency of platelet count. There should be proper diet and exercise during pregnancy that can manage the condition of hypertension. Severity of gestation can be managed through proper management and physician instructions.
