Placental insufficiency also occurs if the placenta does not implant correctly onto the surface of the uterine wall, and can be caused by multiple pregnancies. |
Some conditions in the mother, such as high blood pressure, contribute to problems in the placenta. In some cases, the placental membrane can break or leak, allowing fetal blood to mix with the mother's blood. This can be associated with problems such as Rh incompatibility. |
During pregnancy the placenta (afterbirth) is an organ about the size and shape of a dinner plate which extracts from the mother's blood all the food and oxygen requirement of the baby. It has, until recent years, been believed that when the fetes does not grow properly as in the cases of intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) that it was the fault of the placenta in not supplying the fetus with all it's needs. This is what doctors mean when they use the term 'placental insufficiency', that the placenta's function is insufficient to meet the fetus' full needs to grow properly. |
Another situation in which the placenta was thought to be 'insufficient' was in supplying the baby with enough oxygen. If this condition is severe enough the display signs of fetal distress or obvious lack of oxygen. |
Both intrauterine growth retardation and fetal distress are serious conditions which can lead to the death of the baby if left to progress on their own. Because of this, scientific research has been carried out to try and find out why these conditions occur and what can be done to prevent them becoming serious. |
Between 3 to 7% of all pregnancies are complicated by IUGR due to placental insufficiency. A low birth weight may be suspected if the size of the woman's uterus is smaller than what is expected for each week of pregnancy. The woman has a higher risk of having a child with IUGR if the following are present: |
-
defects of the placental membranes
-
defects of the umbilical cord
-
abnormal implantation of the placenta in the uterus
-
a break in the placental membrane that causes the baby's blood to mix with the mother's blood
-
Rh incompatibility, a condition in which the mother's blood is not compatible with the baby's blood
-
being pregnant with twins or triplets
-
previous low-birth-weight infant
-

-
drug addiction, such as addiction to cocaine
-
blood thinners such as warfarin
-
immunosuppressive medications
-
human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in the mother
-
alcohol abuse
-
infection with cytomegalovirus, toxoplasmosis, rubella, or syphilis, known collectively as TORCH infections
-
poor nutrition of the mother
-
