Filter by:The investigators will study the feasibility of using 90mg ulipristal acetate, a selective progesterone receptor agonist, as an adjunct to 800mcg vaginal misoprostol for the medical management of early pregnancy loss. Patients will be followed to assess effective treatment of early pregnancy loss, additional interventions needed, side effects, adverse events and patient acceptability.
The aim of this work is to assess the effectiveness and safety of Ulipristal Acetate in the management of 2nd trimester missed abortion along with misoprostol in pregnant women with previous caesarean section versus the use of misoprostol only with placebo as regards the time needed for abortion,Hypothesis: In pregnant women with 2nd trimester missed abortion with previous caesarean section , Ulipristal Acetate may decrease the time interval to achieve abortion when combined with Misoprostol in comparison to misoprostol alone.the included women divided to 2 groups Group A: will receive Ulipristal acetate 30mg, starting misoprostol 12 hours later 100µg every 6 hours buccal according to FIGO guidelines 2017.Group B: will receive placebo then 12 hours later start misoprostol 100µg every 6 hours buccal according to FIGO guidelines 2017. then we assess Induction-to-abortion interval time.
The termination of abortion is an important issue that has many controversies. The most common time of serious abortion-related complications is the second trimester. Missed abortion is one of the most common indications of termination of pregnancy in the second trimester. Misoprostol and mifepristone are effective drugs for induction of abortion but these drugs are now expensive, and non-available in many developing countries. The effectiveness of Foley's catheter balloon on cervical ripping for mid-trimester pregnancy termination has been proved before. It can effectually shorten the time of the expulsion of the fetus. Amniotomy defines as an artificial rupture of the membranes; it is an ordinary obstetric practice used mainly in the induction of labor, with good results and less morbidity. The obstetricians used to combine amniotomy with other methods such as prostaglandins or oxytocin to induce labor in a woman with an unfavorable cervix. Despite plenty of studies that investigated the role of amniotomy for induction of labor but the studies which addressed the role of amniotomy in the induction of second-trimester abortion are very scarce in the literature.
The miscarriage is one of the adverse outcomes of pregnancy and is responsible for stress and anxiety of the couple. there are different types of miscarriages.missed miscarriage also known as early fetal demise is one of the type of miscarriage in which patient is mostly asymptomatic but Ultrasound shows absent fetal cardiac activity.Traditionally surgical evacuation of uterus was the treatment of choice for miscarriage.The treatment of miscarriage has evolved significantly in recent years.medical management using misoprostol is the newest treatment option.Misoprostol is a synthetic prostaglandin E(1) analogue that is commonly used for medical miscarriage It can be given orally, vaginally and sublingually.
Aim: The serum procalcitonin, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, c-reactive protein and leukocyte values will be compared between fertile missed abortion diagnosed pregnants and fertile normal pregnants to determine the presence of subclinical infection in the etiology of missed abortion
The investigators are conducting a study on pain control for dilation and curettage (D&C). Participants are eligible to enroll if they are a planning to have a D&C in a participating clinic. The investigators are studying how different ratios of medication to liquid affect pain when injected around the cervix. Both potential methods use the same dose of medication, though researchers would like to know which one works better. To be in this study, participants must be over the age of 18 with an early pregnancy loss or undesired pregnancy measuring less than 12 weeks gestation undergoing D&C while awake in clinic.
Termination of pregnancy is an important subject that has complex and emotional controversies. The most common time of termination of pregnancy is the mid-trimester which has two-thirds of all serious abortion-related complications. There are many indications for mid trimester termination of pregnancy such as missed abortion, serious fetal abnormalities and lastly some women do not wish to continue a pregnancy and will often request termination of pregnancy
The world health organization defined abortion or miscarriage as : the expulsion or extraction from its mother of a fetus or an embryo weighting 500 grams or less ,or any other wise product of gestation of any weight irrespective of gestational age and weather or not there is evidence of life and weather or not the abortion was spontaneous or induced Miscarriage is the most common complication of pregnancy occurring in 10-20% of clinically recognized pregnancies (Bag. It is estimated that around 40% of early pregnancies result in miscarriage. A large majority of those are lost before the menstrual period is missed. More than 80%of abortions occur in first 12 weeks of pregnancy, and the rate decrease there after For clinical purposes: abortion is subdivided into: threatened abortion, inevitable abortion, incomplete abortion ,missed abortion ,septic abortion ,and recurrent abortion
Miscarriage is the most common complication of pregnancy. As many as 15-25% of pregnancies end in miscarriage, and the number of miscarriages in England is estimated to be approximately 125,000 per year. Miscarriage often brings not only physical pain, bleeding and risks of infection, but also psychological impacts on women and their families. This study will focus on women whose pregnancy sac remains inside the womb (known as a missed miscarriage) and opt for medical management of their miscarriage up to 13+6 weeks of pregnancy. NICE currently recommends that a drug called misoprostol (a vaginal pessary or oral tablet that makes the womb contract) should be used in the medical treatment of miscarriage. However, there is evidence to suggest that combining this drug with mifepristone (an oral tablet that reduces pregnancy hormones) may be more effective in treating miscarriage. Therefore, to test this in a clinical trial, participants will be allocated at random to receive either mifepristone followed by misoprostol, or a dummy drug (placebo) followed by misoprostol. Neither the participants nor the researchers will know what allocation is decided, which is necessary to test the treatments fairly. The main outcome of interest will be whether miscarriage is complete within 7 days of randomisation. If miscarriage is not complete then further treatment (more tablets or surgery) will be offered. A number of other key outcomes, such as the need for an operation, will also be assessed. We will also study the views and experience of the participants regarding the tablet treatment. We anticipate that 710 women will be required to take part in the study to answer this question with confidence. We estimate that we would be able to recruit this many women in two years.
The aim of this work is to compare the effectiveness of vaginal versus sub-lingual misoprostol for medical treatment of first trimester missed miscarriage.
