May prompt integrated maternal-fetal monitoring in preterm cases; leaves open distinct pathways by gestational age.
Observational (n=90,500)
Absolute Event Rate: 30.6% vs 7.9%
Ischemic placental disease at preterm gestations is more likely to involve both the mother and fetus than at term, suggesting different pathophysiological pathways.
Ananth et al. (2009) conducted an observational in Ischemic placental disease (n=90,500). Preterm gestation vs. Term gestation was evaluated on Ischemic placental disease presentation involving both maternal and fetal disease. Ischemic placental disease at preterm gestations was more likely to involve both maternal and fetal presentations (30.6%) compared to term gestations (7.9%).
