Experts briefly analyze the common methods of checking ectopic pregnancy in women

Clinically, severe ectopic pregnancy can endanger the patient's life and seriously affect the health of female friends. Early detection of ectopic pregnancy is very beneficial for the treatment of ectopic pregnancy. What are the common methods for detecting ectopic pregnancy? The following is a brief introduction to the common methods for detecting ectopic pregnancy.

In general, the common methods for checking ectopic pregnancy are:

1. Ultrasonic diagnosis: Ultrasonic detection of the gestational sac and fetal heartbeat is very important for the examination of ectopic pregnancy. If the pregnancy is located outside the uterus, it can be diagnosed as an ectopic pregnancy.

2. Pregnancy test: When the embryo is alive or the trophoblast is viable, the syncytial cells secrete HCG, and the pregnancy test may be positive. Since the HCG level in patients with ectopic pregnancy is lower than that in normal pregnancy, the general HCG determination method has a low positive rate, and the more sensitive β-HCG radioimmunoassay or monoclonal antibody enzyme-labeled method must be used to check for ectopic pregnancy.

3. Posterior fornix puncture: It is one of the common methods for checking ectopic pregnancy. Since the blood in the abdominal cavity is most likely to accumulate in the rectouterine pouch, even if the amount of blood is small, it can be sucked out through the posterior fornix puncture. Use an 18-gauge long needle to puncture the rectouterine pouch from the posterior fornix of the vagina. If dark red non-coagulated blood is drawn out, it is a positive result, indicating the presence of intra-abdominal blood accumulation. It is very effective for checking ectopic pregnancy.

The above is an introduction to the common methods of checking for ectopic pregnancy. I believe everyone has some understanding of the examination for ectopic pregnancy. Once an ectopic pregnancy is diagnosed, you must go to the hospital for treatment in time to avoid delaying the condition.
