title: [Hemorrhaging in early pregnancy].
abstract: 283 patients with vaginal bleedings in the first three months of pregnancy were included in an analysis and compared to a control group. We could not find a correlation between bleeding in the early weeks of pregnancy and the age of the mother, the onset of menarche, parity, and preceded premature deliveries. On the other hand we found a significantly high number of bleedings in women, who already had abortions before, and diseases during pregnancy (infections, hyperemesis gravidarum). No statistical differences could be discovered in relation to the control group referring to the course of labour (rupture of membranes, changes of the amniotic fluid, operative deliveries, obstetrical presentation, first and second stage of labour, and complications of the delivery). The average birth weight was significantly lowered because of the large amount of premature births. We could not prove any increase of the rate of deformity after bleeding in the early weeks of pregnancy.
