OBJECTIVE: To evaluate and compare the current approach to the management of ectopic pregnancy between the main two civil hospitals in the north of Jordan.
DESIGN: A retrospective study.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective review was made of the records of all patients with confirmed ectopic pregnancy admitted to Princess Badea Teaching Hospital (PBTH), and King Abdullah University Hospital (KAUH) between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2005. The total number of deliveries for the same period was obtained from the labor ward records of hospitals. Information regarding demographic data, presenting symptoms, methods of diagnosis and treatment were extracted from individual patient records.
RESULTS: There were 50 cases of confirmed ectopic pregnancy in PBTH compared with 20 cases in KAUH. The total number of deliveries at PBTH was 9,000 (1 ectopic/180 deliveries) while at KAUH, the number of deliveries was 3,000 so the ratio was 1: 150. The majority of patients (82%) had ruptured ectopic pregnancy at presentation. All cases at PBTH were managed by laparotomy. Of the 20 cases at KAUH, five cases were managed laparoscopically and three received medical treatment for their ectopics. There was no maternal mortality from ectopic pregnancy or its management at either hospital.
CONCLUSION: The management of ectopic pregnancy in our community is still suboptimal. We recommend the development of clinical protocols for early diagnosis and referral, training in transvaginal scanning and an increase in the use of laparoscopy for the management of ectopic pregnancy.
