- Abstract
Risk prediction models utilising hCG and progesterone are effective tools to manage PUL pending a final diagnosis by TVUS. The M6 prediction model uses progesterone, hCG and the hCG ratio (hCG 48 hours/hCG 0 hours). We assessed the effectiveness of PUL risk stratification at 96 hours using the M6 model and the time taken to confirm a diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy using TVUS.
