- W2068021216 abstract "Current data suggest there is no difference between expectant care, misoprostol, and surgical treatment for incomplete miscarriage at less than 13 weeks of gestation. The authors searched the Cochrane Pregnancy and Childbirth Group's Trials Register (September 2009), which includes searches of the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE, and hand searches of journals and conference proceedings. No language restrictions were applied. Only randomized controlled trials comparing medical treatment with alternatives for women with spontaneous miscarriage after less than 24 weeks of gestation were eligible for inclusion; selection was made by at least 2 review authors independently. Data were extracted with a standardized data collection form. Dichotomous results were reported as summary relative risk with 95% confidence intervals. Fifteen studies were included in the systematic review. The majority of included studies reported proper methods of randomization and concealment of allocation; however, only 1 trial reported adequate blinding. Participants were confirmed to have retained tissue by ultrasonography or received a clinical diagnosis of uncertainty of complete versus incomplete miscarriage. Women with nonviable pregnancies or in utero fetal demise were excluded, and no study included women with more than 13 weeks of gestation. The systematic review suggests that women have a number of options for the treatment of incomplete miscarriage (less than 13 weeks). Although significant uncertainty exists around effect sizes, differences in treatment are likely of limited clinical significance, which may allow women to choose from multiple options according to their preferences for a particular treatment. The Table summarizes a few outcomes for patients to consider when choosing between different treatment methods. Though a number of outcomes were reported in the original review article (ie, blood transfusion, anemia, or pelvic infection), there were no significant differences and therefore the outcomes are not reported in the Table. Of the studies included, roughly half determined completion of miscarriage clinically, whereas the remainder used ultrasonographic confirmation. Timelines for assessment of completed miscarriage varied, but the majority assessed patients at 1 to 2 weeks. In the Table, the relative risk for unplanned surgery was derived from expectant or medical treatment participants who at follow-up had retained products (at 1- to 2-week follow-up) and requested surgical removal. Vaginal misoprostol versus surgery demonstrated an increased requirement for analgesia in the misoprostol group but a reduced requirement for analgesia in the oral misoprostol group compared with those undergoing surgery (Table).Tabled 1ComparisonOutcome (No. of Studies, Sample Size)Relative Risk (95% Confidence Interval)Vaginal misoprostol vs expectant care Completed miscarriage (2; 308)Unplanned surgery (2; 308)Pain relief (2; 308) 1.23 (0.72–2.10)0.62 (0.17–2.26)1.12 (0.67–1.88)Vaginal misoprostol vs surgery Completed miscarriage (3; 154)Unplanned surgery (3; 315)Pain relief (3; 313) 0.90 (0.82–0.99)5.56 (1.11–27.90)1.75 (1.21–2.54)Oral misoprostol vs surgery Completed miscarriage (4; 1143)Unplanned surgery (3; 843)Pain relief (1; 212) 0.97 (0.93–1.02)7.07 (2.34–21.30)0.85 (0.77–0.92)Vaginal and oral misoprostol vs surgeryCompleted miscarriage (1; 80)0.95 (0.87–1.04) Open table in a new tab Spontaneous incomplete miscarriage before 24 weeks of gestation is associated with vaginal bleeding, abdominal cramps, dilatation of the cervical canal, and partial passage of the products of conception through the cervical os.

This Cochrane review highlights a need for continued research into treatment modalities for incomplete miscarriages. The number of studies included in the review was limited, many were underpowered, and women were limited to a gestational age less than 13 weeks. Clinically relevant outcomes such as rates of completed miscarriage were not statistically different between the different treatment methods. At submission of this article, the Food and Drug Administration had not yet approved the use of misoprostol for incomplete miscarriages. However, these treatment options should be carefully weighed, taking into account individual patient preferences about discomfort, time to completion, unplanned surgical procedures, hospitalization versus treatment at home, and follow-up." @default.
