Q

Types of abortion

A

Threatened - cervical os is closed and potentially viable pregnancy still requiring close follow up and observation at home as well as serial b hCG
Inevitable - cervical os is dilated but products of conception retained, treated with surgical evacuation via dilation and curetage or misoprostal or expectant management
Incomplete - cervical os is dilated, some products of conception expelled, options include expectant management with transvaginal US to determine when complete, or surgical evacuation such as dilation and curettage or misoprostal
Complete - cervical os is closed, all products of conception are expelled, treated with RhoGAM if indicated and follow up beta hCG
Missed - cervical os is closed, products of conception are retained, treated with surgical evacuation such as dilation and curettage or misoprostal
Septic - Cervical os closed, some products of conception retained, cervical motion tenderness and foul brown discharge, fever, chills, treated with dilation and curettage to remove products of conception plus broad spectrum antibiotics
