Contraception, 1983
Ectopic pregnancies have risen dramatically in North America and in parts of Europe in the last 20 years. It has been suggested that the IUD may be 1 of the causes of the increase. This article examines data from studies in the United States the United Kingdom and Sweden and concludes that the risk of ectopic pregnancy for IUD users is not greater ...

ABSTRACTThe incidence of ectopic pregnancy in the United States has been reported to be as high as 20 per 1000 pregnancies, a more than 4‐fold increase over the last 20 years. Clinical presentation can range from subtle, nonspecific abdominal complaints to acute onset pain or hemorrhagic bleeding.

Obstetrics, Gynaecology & Reproductive Medicine, 2014
An ectopic pregnancy (EP) occurs when a pregnancy implants outside the uterus. Over 98% implant in the fallopian tube. Non-tubal sites include the interstitium, ovary, cervix, and caesarean section scars. The resultant growth of the EP can damage the implanted tissue, giving rise to pain and intraperitoneal bleeding.

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2003
Ectopic pregnancy is a high-risk diagnosis that is increasing in frequency and is still commonly missed in the emergency department. The emergency physician needs a high index of suspicion and must understand that the history, physical examination, and a single quantitative beta-hCG level cannot reliably rule out an ectopic pregnancy.

The Lancet, 2005
Ectopic pregnancy is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Use of transvaginal ultrasonography and quantitative measurement of the beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) has led to a reduction in the need for diagnostic laparoscopy. Furthermore, with earlier diagnosis, medical therapy with methotrexate can be offered

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1995
The clinical diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is well established. Serial human chorionic gonadotropin titers and transvaginal ultrasound have a high detection rate. In addition, serum progesterone levels are an indicator for eligibility to a medical protocol.

Journal of Perioperative Practice, 2016
It is thought-provoking to remember that until 1883 a ruptured ectopic pregnancy was a death sentence. In his book on this condition, by the physician, John Parry, published in 1876, we read “here is an accident which may happen to any wife in the most useful period of her existence which good authorities have said is never cured… no remedy, either ...
