SAB
All POC have been expelled during this type of AB from the Uterus.
complete abortion
Most common sign for a 1st trimester Abortion.
Subchorionic hemorrhage (SCH) or Implantation bleeding.
Begins with the hemorrhage from the decidual basalis layer causing a detachement of conceptus.

Advanced Maternal Age,. have more bleeding during pregnancy so should be monitored more often.
Often mistaken for twins & most common during the 1st 2 months of pregnancy.
Subchorionic Bleed
The presence of an embryo w/in the UT, but w/out cardiac activity.
Missed Abortion

Missed AB
Opening of the cervical os, continuation of bleeding with thinning & dilating cervix.
Inevidable AB
Irregular shaped sac, fetus not well defined,.. eventually get a D&C since pregnancy not progressing.
Missed AB
Normal appearing Gestational sac surrounded by crescent-shaped fluid collection w/varying echogenicities.

Incomplete AB
Patient bleeding 7 or more days it's most likely this type of AB?
Inevidible AB
This type of abortion has RAPIDLY increasing HcG levels.
Complete AB
Heavy bleeding w/cramps but no pain & tissue is echogenic on u/s.
Complete AB
What is a Trophoblastic REaction?
A thikcening endometrium 3 days after a spontaneous abortion.
A thin & dilated cervix, slowly decreasing HcG & air bubbles seen on u/s,.. what type of AB has occured?
Incomplete
Spotting, cramping, decreased Hcg indicates what type of AB>

What would cause the incidince of Ectopics to increase in a pregnancy?
STD's and PID, surgery, fertility drugs, IUD's
How long can an ectopic grow until it ruptures? Where is fluid seen once this occurs.
8-9 weeks -- "morrison's pouch" btwn kidney & liver
What are the 4 types of Adnexal Ectopic Pregnancies & which is the most prevalent?
Fibrial, Isthmic, Ampullary, & Interstitial/coronal. Ampullary & Isthmic are the most likely.
This doesn't contain a yolk sac or living embryo and are centrally located in the endometrium.

Which ectopic usually has Oligohydra? What is this?
Abdominal Ectopic, too little amniotic fluid.
