Course overview

FIRST-TRIMESTER ULTRASONOGRAPHY IS A COMMONLY PERFORMED EXAM BY AN OBSTETRICIAN OR HEALTHCARE PROVIDER WITHIN THE FIRST 14 WEEKS POST-CONCEPTION. IT MAY BE UTILIZED AS A PART OF THE STANDARD EVALUATION DURING PREGNANCY OR TO ELUCIDATE OTHER CONCERNING SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS (E.G., VAGINAL BLEEDING, THE SUSPECTED PASSAGE OF FETAL TISSUE, ETC.). THIS ACTIVITY OUTLINES THE ASSESSMENT PROTOCOLS AND INTERPRETATION OF ULTRASONOGRAPHY AND HIGHLIGHTS THE ROLE OF OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY IN EVALUATING AND TREATING THOSE WHO ARE WITHIN THE 1ST TRIMESTER OF PREGNANCY.
