In this episode we review Dr. Scott Weingart's Practical Evidence Podcast #3 on Management of First Trimester Vaginal Bleeding and ACEP's 2012 Clinical Policy. After a thrilling discussion of the discriminatory zone and ultrasound, we digress into core content covering bleeding in later pregnancy (placental abruption and previa), abdominal pain in pregnancy including septic abortion and chorioamnionitis, as well as eclampsia and pre-eclampsia.

Key Texts: Tintinalli (7e) Chapters 102-105 ; Rosen's (8e) Chapter 178
