Abstract
Obstetrics haemorrhage is the third direct leading cause for maternal mortality as highlighted in the last Mothers and Babies: Reducing risk through Audits and Confidential Enquires across the UK (MBRRACE-UK) report published in 2023. Antepartum haemorrhage (APH) can occur at any time between the age of viability until delivery. The most significant causes of APH, though not the most common, are associated with maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. These are placenta praevia, placental abruption, placenta accreta, vasa praevia, and uterine rupture. This review will outline the basic management principles of APH and provide an overview for most serious APH causes.
