We determined the role of mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) in the prediction of placental abruption (PA) prior to caesarean section. Data obtained between January 2011 and July 2014 from patients (n = 33) with PA and healthy control subjects (n = 67) matched for age- and gestation-stage were analysed.
