👉PA<AP radiation
👉Use preservative free heparin
👉 NCCT head <0.001mGy exposure👉 Avoid use of lead over abdomen for CT - may actually increase radiation exposure
👉POCUS can raise temp from absorption of sound waves. B-mode best, Doppler worst. Minimize time
👉CT contrast = cat B, use when urgently needed vs MRA when not

Ectopic pregnancies, sometimes called "tubal pregnancies" are when the fetus is growing in the wrong place.
A fetus should take root in the uterus, where it can grow safely. If it gets stuck elsewhere, that's an ectopic.
It's super common - 1 in 50 pregnancies!

many women have no idea that their pregnancy is ectopic.
One day, they have abdominal pain and/or vaginal bleeding, and they go to the ER - and an ultrasound confirms it. It's a serious emergency that ER providers see ALL THE TIME.
Every damn day, really.
