Hysteroscopy for Pregnancy of Unknown Location

NCT02637739 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 30

Last updated 2016-01-07

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

About 10% of early pregnancies can not be visualized by transvaginal ultrasound (TVU) on first visit and are classified as pregnancy of unknown location (PUL). The etiology includes ongoing intra-uterine pregnancy, failing pregnancy, or ectopic pregnancy. Early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is important because it allows conservative treatment. Serum β-hCG, D\&C, and laparoscopy are routinely used as diagnostic methods. The purpose of the study is to evaluate if the less invasive office hysteroscopy (HSC) can help diagnose PUL.
