Abstract

Objective: Thrombocytopenia,
expressed as platelet counts lower than 150 × 109 /L, is a common
hematological anomaly seen in 6.6% of the pregnancies. Incidental
thrombocytopenia of the pregnancy, commonly referred
to as gestational thrombocytopenia, accounts for 70%–80% of cases.

This study aimed
to elucidate the effect of gestational thrombocytopenia on negative fetal and
maternal results in low-risk pregnancies.

Method: The
patients were divided into two groups. The control group (n = 240) consisted of healthy pregnant women with normal platelet
count, and the study group (n = 80) consisted of pregnant women with
gestational thrombocytopenia.

Results: Maternal age,
pre-pregnancy body mass indexes, parity, and previous cesarean history rates
were similar in both groups. Gestational age during delivery, fetal weight, delivery
induction, amniotic fluid stained with meconium, hyperbilirubinemia, admission
to neonatal
intensive care unit, transient
tachypnea of the newborn
, respiratory distress syndrome, hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy, necrotizing
enterocolitis, intraventricular hemorrhage, and 5-min Apgar scores of <7 were not different between the groups (P = 0.056, P
= 0.233, P = 0.582, P = 0.798, P = 0.711, P =
0.859, P = 0.634, P = 1, P = 1,P = 1, P = 1,and
P = 1, respectively).
Spontaneous vaginal delivery, necessity
for emergency cesarean delivery, postpartum hemorrhage, abnormal hemorrhage during cesarean, necessity for
blood transfusion, and postpartum hysterectomy rates did not differ between the
groups (P =
0.530, P = 0.752, P
<0.001, P<0.001, P = 0.758, P = 1, P =
1,and P = 1, respectively)
. Despite being within normal limits, discharge time
after C/S and spontaneous vaginal delivery was
longer in the gestational thrombocytopenia group than in the control group.









Conclusions: The
results of the study showed that gestational thrombocytopenia did not pose a
risk for both the mother and the fetus in low-risk pregnancies.
