The following things can be inferred from the ultrasound report you have posted.
1. There is pregnancy with a viable single fetus.
2. Heart rate of 145 beats per minute is normal.
3. Placenta is located towards the front.
4. Amniotic fluid (fluid surrounding fetus) is adequate.
5. Uterine muscle contraction has been seen on the back side.
6. Collection of clotted blood is noted at the lower edge of placenta, which measures 1.9 X 0.9 cm.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
