The question of how to deal with miscarriage in all its different phases is extremely important for the practitioner. Meanwhile, the opinions of prominent obstetricians about the treatment of miscarriages are very different. Abel, on the basis of 200 abortion cases successfully used in his clinic, is trying to give a guiding thread that should be used by the practitioner. The longest he stops on the treatment of abortus imperfectus, that is, those cases where a patient, after having committed an incomplete miscarriage, comes to the doctor with complaints of bleeding, and both the external and internal pharynx are already closed for the most part.

Objective. To find out the success rate of conservative management of complete two weeks for miscarriage in view of NICE Guideline 154.Design. Prospective observational study.Setting. Early pregnancy assessment units of District General Hospital in the United Kingdom.Participants. Women of less than 14 weeks’ gestation, with a diagnosis of miscarriage (missed miscarriage/anembryonic or incomplete miscarriage).Interventions.Expectant management for two weeks.Main Outcome Measure.(1) Efficacy of 2-week expectant management, that is, complete resolution of miscarriage based either on self-reporting of patient after passing products of conception at home between D0 and D14 of expectant management or confirmation on scan at D14, and (2) short-term complications needing strong analgesia, blood transfusion, and antibiotics.Results. Expectant management of miscarriage for 2 weeks from the day of diagnosis was successful in 58% (64 /111) and failed in 42% (47/111).Conclusions. Expectant management success rate is consistent with the results from the longitudinal studies and RCTs published in the past. It is a safe option as none of the patients on expectant/medical management needed strong analgesia/antibiotics or blood transfusion.

Background: Expectant management as first line management of early pregnancy miscarriages is less accepted due to failure and increased complications reported in few studies. Proper selection of cases improves outcome of expectant management. Aim of this study was to compare success rate and complications in expectant management in three groups of early pregnancy miscarriages- Incomplete miscarriage, anembryonic pregnancy and early fetal demise.Methods: Prospective observational study conducted in tertiary care centre for 3 years, including 107 patients with USG confirmed pregnancy miscarriage <13 weeks. Patients preferring expectant management were managed as outpatient without intervention for 2 weeks after which repeat USG was done to ascertain complete miscarriage. Failed expectant management patients underwent planned surgical uterine evacuation. Emergency admission and evacuation was done, if symptomatic during waiting period. Success rate and complications like emergency evacuation, vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, limitation of physical activity and patient satisfaction were assessed and compared in subgroups of anembryonic pregnancy, early fetal demise and incomplete miscarriage. Statistical analysis was done by chi-square test.Results: Incomplete miscarriage group had highest success rate of 88.46%. followed by anembryonic pregnancy (72.5%) and EFD (47.83%) p value = 0.007. Complication rate was highest in EFD, followed by anembryonic and the least in incomplete miscarriage all of which was statistically significant except vaginal bleeding.Conclusions: Expectant management should be offered as first line choice for all types of early pregnancy miscarriages. Proper selection of case as to type of miscarriage especially incomplete miscarriage and selected cases of anembryonic pregnancy and EFD ensures higher success rate with lesser complications. Reserving medical and surgical management for unsuitable/failed cases.

Background: Medical termination of missed miscarriage and incomplete miscarriage with misoprostol, are an alternative to surgical evacuation (dilatation and curettage). This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of misoprostol in highly parous woman for incomplete and missed miscarriage.Methods: This was a retrospective study was conducted in two different time lines (2010 and 2014). All patients admitted to the Sultan Qaboos University hospital, Muscat, Oman, for the management of first-trimester miscarriages (missed and incomplete types) during the study period were included. Some women were moved to dilation and curettage even after misoprostol. The effect of gravidity and parity on those women in whom misoprostol was not effective was studied.Results: The overall success rate of misoprostol for the management was 62.14% in 2010 and 53.8% 2014. In nulliparous woman the success rate of misoprostol was slightly higher than parous women. There was no apparent effect of gravidity and parity of ≥ 5 or ≥ 5 on the success of misoprostol.Conclusions: Misoprostol reduced the rate of surgical evacuation among the study subjects. In highly parous and multigravid women (≥ para 5 and gravida ≥5) the success was not significantly different compared to less parous women.

The question of the treatment of miscarriage and the question of the production of a legitimate artificial miscarriage, which is closely connected with it, seems to be one of the most vital issues of modern gynecology, which are of great importance for a practitioner. In most cases, this requires a quick decisive action on the part of the doctor, and it is quite understandable why we are so interested in the question: in what way, in what way it is possible to achieve the goal most surely and faster with the least danger for the patient. As you know, the danger to a patient with miscarriage, whether it is artificial or not, lies on the one hand in bleeding, and on the other in infection; both the one and the other danger is depending on how quickly and completely the emptying of the uterus occurred. Cases of prolonged or incomplete miscarriage pose the greatest danger from both infection and blood loss.
