A Study of Efficacy of Misoprostol in Missed Abortion.
Аннотация
BACKGROUND
Missed abortion is a common emergency where uterine evacuation is performed by surgical means.
METHOD: A total of 30 patients were included in this study to evaluate the efficacy of tablet misoprostol for uterine evacuation in cases of missed abortion. The gestational age ranged from 8-22 weeks. 21 out of 30 patients were primigravidae and the rest multigravidae. Tablet misoprostol (200mcg) was applied vaginally in the posterior fornix every eight hours to a maximum of five tablets. Success rate, complications and side effects were the main outcome measures.
RESULTS
The procedure was successful in all cases. Two out of 30 cases required check curettage. Gastrointestinal side effects like vomiting and diarrhoea were seen in few cases.
CONCLUSION
The use of tablet misoprostol is effective for uterine evacuation in cases of missed abortion.
