Ectopic Pregnancy and Miscarriage

The guideline covers diagnosis of early pregnancy loss, including the use of ultrasound scanning and biochemical 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.
