abstract="Domestic violence is a serious social problem and an issue of perinatal health. This article presents the results of a survey conducted at the CHU Ibn Rochd of Casablanca over a period of one year in order to determine their frequency, risk factors, maternal diseases and obstetric complications. The results of our survey found that women who reported physical abuse have a frequency of 18.3% (125 cases). The average age of these women is 22.3 years. Seventy-one percent of parturients are illiterate, 61% from a disadvantaged socioeconomic status, 47% originated from a rural, half of the abused are multiparous with an average of 4.2 living children, 35% unplanned pregnancies. 37% of pregnant partners are unemployed and 86% have toxic habits. Obstetric complications are fairly frequent and mental effects are not negligible with three attempted suicides. <br><br>CONCLUSION: Early identification of abuse suffered by pregnant women and taking measures to prevent them could reduce the occurrence of these adverse effects. © 2012 Publié par Elsevier Masson SAS.<p /><p>Language: fr</p>",
