Objective: To analyze, through a literature review, the worldwide prevalence of placenta previa. Methodology: Multiple databases and search equations were used in English and Spanish to analyze 1,038 articles. Of these, a comprehensive evaluation of 400 articles was conducted. Through a screening process, 150 papers relevant to the research were identified. Sixty-three documents met the selection criteria, including 64 scientific articles and one statistical report from the National Statistics and Census Institute (INEC by its Spanish acronym). Results: The research reveals a range of placenta previa rates worldwide, varying from 2.3% to 12.2%; these rates may fluctuate depending on factors including ethnic origin and obstetric conditions; risk factors like advanced maternal age and specific surgical procedures are highlighted. Severe complications, such as bleeding during childbirth, are frequently encountered. Exploring the potential of conventional treatments and less invasive drugs, such as, corticosteroids and tranexamic acid, is essential for managing placenta. Conclusion: The crucial role of nurses in educating, providing comprehensive care, and offering emotional support to women affected by placenta previa and their families is emphasized.
