Retained placenta is epidemiologically associated to defective placentation disorders, a finding which is supported in part by signs of decreased antioxidative capacity in the placenta and increased histological signs of maternal placental underperfusion. Prolonged oxytocin use may exacerbate the risk of retained placenta. Risk awareness of retained placenta should guide preparedness during the third stage of labor given the high risk of severe postpartum hemorrhage that the disorder entails. |
