testing. Investigations incur costs and the use of serial measurements may delay
decision making. The guideline includes guidance on when senior and/or
specialist advice should be sought in order to avoid errors and unnecessary
delay. The guideline does not cover pregnancy after the first trimester. It also
does not deal with unusual conditions that present with pain and bleeding, such
as hydatidiform mole, which require a different form of treatment.
