Frequency of Anticardiolipin Antibodies in Women with Recurrent Fetal Loss
View through CrossRef
Aim: To find out the frequency of Anticardiolipin Antibodies in women with recurrent fetal loss Study design & duration: One year descriptive study Methods: Seventy five females were included in the study with ages ranging from 20-40 years with minimum two miscarriages. Diabetic females and females with history of bacterial or viral diseases were excluded from the study. Results: In this group the mean age was 27.60±3.29 years. Mean number of fetal losses was 2.95±1.45 whereas mean duration of marriage was 5.79±4.11 years. Conclusion: It is suggested that the patient with history of recurrent miscarriages must be screened for Anticardiolipin Antibodies to bring them out of psychological and physical trauma. Keywords: Anticardiolipin Antibodies (aCL), Recurrent fetal loss (RFL), aPTT
