OB

Definite IUP = gestational sac containing yolk sac

  • Occurs ~5.5th week
    • MUST contain yolk sac to be confirmed IUP. Pseudogestational sac possible in ectopic pregnancy
  • B-HCG below Discriminatory Zone = <1,500-3,000 mIU/ml
  • Consider Transabd US for IUP: >6000 mIU/ml

Endometrial mantle

  • normal size > 8 mm

Fetal Heart Rate

  • normal 120-160
  • Use M-mode to calculate

Estimated gestational age

  • can be measured by crown rump length, femur length, biparietal diameter, etc.
    • depends on gestational age and quality/type of image aquired

Nonpregnant

  • Ovarian torsion
    • increased risk with cyst(s) > 5mm
