Placental abruption is a medical condition in which the placenta detaches from the uterus.

The first line of treatment for placental abruption involves replacing the mother's lost blood with blood transfusions and fluids given through a needle in a vein. Oxygen will be administered, usually by a mask or through tubes leading to the nose.

Diagnosis of placental abruption relies heavily on the patient's report of her symptoms and a physical examination performed by a health care provider.
