Abstract Aim The objective of this study was to assess the link between postpartum blood loss and placental elastography in multiparous pregnancies. Method In this prospective study, multiparous women who delivered at term between 2020 and 2024 were included. During the obstetric ultrasonography procedure, placental elastography was evaluated through the utilization of the shear wave elastography (SWE) technique. Elastographic measurements were performed at three distinct sites within the anteriorly positioned placentas via the abdominal route. The mean value of these three sites was subsequently calculated to d…
