Abstract

Objective: To determine the prevalence of ectopic pregnancy in the high-risk obstetric service of the Carlos Andrade Marín Hospital and to know the associated risk factors. Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional, retrospective study was carried out, taking into account patients admitted with a diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy to the high-risk service of the Carlos Andrade Marín Hospital, from January 1, 2017 to May 31 of 2019. Results: During the period from January 1, 2017 to May 31, 2019, a total of 7596 births were recorded in the High Obstetric Risk Service of Hospital Carlos Andrade Marín. Of all of them, a total of 117 patients were registered diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy. The prevalence of ectopic pregnancies in the Hospital Carlos Andrade Marín in a period between 2017 and 2019 was 1.5%, with an ectopic pregnancy rate of 15.40 per 1000 pregnancies. Conclusions: When performing an analysis of the data obtained from the medical records it was possible to obtain similar results of prevalence rates of ectopic pregnancy in the High Risk Obstetric Service of the Hospital Carlos Andrade Marín in relation to the data obtained by different studies conducted around of the world.
