57
Q

.A 23-year-old G1P0 woman at 15 weeks GA presents with abdominal pain and mild bleeding rom the cervix. On pelvic examination, some POC are ound to be present in the vaginal vault. What test is necessary to determine the next step in management?

A

Ultrasonography should be per ormed to determine i all the POC have been expelled (ie, i the uterus is empty). I so, it is a complete abortion and the POC should be sent to pathology to con rm etal tissue with no other treatment. I POC are retained, it is an incomplete abortion, and manual uterine aspiration or D&C is indicated. Medical management with misoprostol may also be appropriate.
