2008 ACEP EUS guidelines

• Describe the relevant local anatomy of pelvic cavity

• Describe the role of focused US in first-trimester pregnancy pain and bleeding.

• Understand the role of US and quantitative β-hCG in a clinical algorithm for first-

trimester pregnancy pain and bleeding.

• Understand the differential diagnosis of early pregnancy including intrauterine

pregnancy, embryonic demise, molar pregnancy, ectopic pregnancy, and

indeterminate classes.

• Recognize the relevant focused findings and pitfalls when evaluating for early

intrauterine pregnancy and ectopic pregnancy.

– Early embryonic structures

– Location of embryonic structures in pelvis

– Findings of ectopic pregnancy

– Pseudogestational sac

– Adnexal masses

Role of EUS for OB/GYN

• Identify an IUP

• Establish fetal viability

• Hemodynamic instability in a female patient

• Trauma and pregnancy

• Localization of IUD/foreign body

• Identify sources of pelvic pain and bleeding in

pregnant & non-pregnant patients

Trans-abdominal US 1st choice for emergency physician

• Use a lower frequency transducer: 3.5 –5 mHz

• Better penetration, larger field of view

• It should be the initial imaging window to assess

for

– Advanced IUP

– Fibroids/masses

– Pelvic fluid

• The bladder should be full to provide an acoustic

window

Transvaginal US

• Use a higher frequency transducer: 6.0-7.5mHz

• Provides optimal imaging of:

– Endometrium

– Myometrium

– Cul-de-sac

– Ovaries

• A full bladder is not necessary for this approach

• Is usually better tolerated by patients

US Findings in IUP

• Gestational sac

• Double decidual sac sign (DDSS)

• Yolk sac

• Embryo

• Cardiac activity

Intradecidual Sign

Gestational Sac

• Anechoic area within the uterus

surrounded by two bright echogenic rings

– Decidua vera (the outer ring)

– Decidua capsularis (the inner ring)

• This is referred to as the double decidual

sac sign (DDSS)

Double Decidual Sign

Yolk Sac

• First embryonic structure that can be

detected sonographically

• Visualized approximately 5-6 weeks after

the last menstrual period

• Bright, ring like structure within the GS

• Should be readily seen when the GS sac

is greater than 10 mm (using EVS)

Yolk Sac

Embryo & Yolk Sac

Intrauterine embryo & yolk sac

A Fetal Heart Beat

• An important prognostic indicator

• The rate of spontaneous abortion is extremely low (2- 4%) after the detection of normal embryonic cardiac activity

• The normal fetal heart rate in early pregnancy is 112-136

43F complained low

Ectopic pregnancy

Ectopic Pregnancy

• 2% of all pregnancies, 7-13% of those who

present with pain or bleeding

• Incidence quadrupled in last 20 years

• 50% were missed before widespread use

of ultrasound

• Still the #1 cause of maternal death in

1st trimester

Rule-out Ectopic Pregnancy

(saves time and money)

• Find an IUP

• Chance of both IUP and EP is 1/8000

• As high as 1/100 if pt takes fertility agents

β-hCG Levels

• Correlate roughly with gestational age

• Older algorithms relied on β-hCG

• One level means almost nothing

• Serial levels are helpful

• 40% ectopics have a β-hCG level <1000

Discriminatory Zone

• Def:

– The level of β-hCG at which findings of an

IUP are expected on sonography

• Titinalli 7th ed.

– TVS 1500 mIU/mL; TAS 6000 mIU/mL

• Rosen

– TVS 3000 mIU/mL; TAS 6500 mIU/mL

ß-hCG >discriminatory zone and empty

uterus is EP until proven otherwise

Sonographic Spectrum of EP • Ruptured ectopic pregnancy

• Definite ectopic pregnancy

• Extrauterine empty gestational sac

• Adenexal mass

• Pseudogestational sac

• Empty uterus

– Subcuatneous gas • Acoustic shadow

• Reverberation artifact

Cellulitis

• Nonspecific

• Indicative of edema

• Skin

• Subcutaneous tissue

• Compare to unaffected side

Squire BT, et al. AEM. 2005;12:601-606

NTUH experience

• diffuse thickening of the SC tissue

• a layer of fluid accumulation more than 4 mm in depth along the deep fascial layer

• 66 patients (17,NF)

• Sensitivity: 88.2%

• Specificity: 93.3%

• PPV: 83.3%

• NPV: 95.4%

• Accuarcy: 91.9

– Detect gray-scale compressibility

– Lack of compressibility DVT

• Secondary component

– Use of Doppler to evaluate for abnormal flow

No complete compression

1. Presence of a clot

2. Inadequate pressure on the

transducer
