This retrospective quantitative-descriptive study characterized the clinical and epidemiological profile of patients diagnosed with tubal ectopic pregnancy at Hospital das Clínicas de Teresópolis Constantino Ottaviano in 2020, using predefined variables extracted from 22 medical records after review of 1620 records. The analysis reported a higher incidence among white women aged 25–30 years presenting with bilateral abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding, with tubal rupture and generally good general condition, diagnosed with transvaginal ultrasound and treated via exploratory laparotomy with salpingectomy. A major limitation was incomplete information in medical records, which affected the accuracy of the analysis and the study’s outcomes. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

Introduction: Tubal ectopic pregnancy is a major health problem among women of childbearing age, accounting for approximately 1-2% of all pregnancies in the general population. It is considered the leading cause of maternal death in the first trimester, accounting for approximately 2.7% of all pregnancy-related deaths. Goals: To know the profile of patients diagnosed with tubal ectopic pregnancy at the Hospital das Clinicas de Terespolis Constantino Ottaviano, in the year 2020. Method: A bibliographic survey was carried out, followed by a quantitativedescriptive field research, with an analysis of 1620 records of interest. Of these, 23 had a diagnosis of tubal ectopic pregnancy and, after exclusion criteria, 22 medical records were admitted for analysis of the variables predefined in the form. After completing this stage, a retrospective study was carried out in order to identify prevalent elements and their relationships, and a characterization of these patients was outlined. Results: Higher incidence of white women, between 25 and 30 years old, complaining of bilateral abdominal pain, associated with vaginal bleeding, with tubal rupture and good general condition, diagnosed with transvaginal ultrasound and treated with exploratory laparotomy with salpingectomy. Conclusion: From this study, it was possible to trace the epidemiological profile of women who had tubal ectopic pregnancy at the HCTCO in 2020, but the lack of information reported in the medical records affected the accuracy of the analysis and outcome of this research.
