Outcomes considered were \u2018complete evacuation\u2019, complications, duration of bleeding, pain resulting from the procedure, side effects and women's satisfaction with the procedure. <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>: Thirteen studies were identified. Combined data in women with missed abortion managed expectantly or treated with misoprostol showed complete evacuation rates of 28% (49\/173) (range 14\u201347%) and 81% (242\/298) (range 60\u201383%), respectively. In women with incomplete abortion, these rates were 94% (31\/33) (range 80\u2013100%) and 99% (75\/76) (range 99\u2013100%), respectively. <jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>: In the management of early pregnancy loss both expectant management and misoprostol treatment reduce the need for curettage, but misoprostol treatment seems to be more effective in women with missed abortion as compared to expectant management.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijgo.2004.04.038","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,6,22]],"date-time":"2004-06-22T14:22:16Z","timestamp":1087914136000},"page":"337-346","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":48,"title":["Management of early pregnancy loss"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"86","author":[{"given":"G.C.M.","family":"Graziosi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"B.W.","family":"Mol","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"W.M.","family":"Ankum","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"H.W.","family":"Bruinse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,6,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM198807283190401"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/humrep\/16.2.365"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM197912273012602"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1146\/annurev.pu.09.050188.001011"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1471-0528.1997.tb12030.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0015-0282(99)00128-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0020-7292(96)02815-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1471-0528.1996.tb09632.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mob.2002.126205"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/humrep\/16.7.1493"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(95)90060-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1471-0528.1999.tb08401.x"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_2_5_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"141","DOI":"10.1080\/ejc.6.3.141.144","article-title":"Randomized outpatient clinical trial of medical evacuation and surgical curettage in incomplete miscarriage","volume":"6","author":"Sahin H.G.","year":"2001","journal-title":"Eur J Contracept Reprod Health Care"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/humrep\/17.9.2445"},{"issue":"4","key":"e_1_2_5_16_2","first-page":"563","article-title":"Medical management of missed abortion: a randomized clinical trial","volume":"99","author":"Wood S.L","year":"2002","journal-title":"Obstet Gynecol"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.0004-8666.2002.00161.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.311.7006.662"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(94)92406-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mob.2001.117661"}],"container-title":["International Journal of Gynecology &amp;
