About this study

Official title: Incidence and Trend of Ectopic Pregnancy 2009-2018 - A Population-based Study

In this trial researchers want to learn more about the occurrence of pregnancies growing outside the womb over the last decade (2009-2018) and the potential risk factors associated with pregnancies growing outside the womb. Electronic data in women who were age 15 to 44 years abstracted from health care systems such as electronic health records (EHR), regional claims systems and administrative databases were used to address research questions on ...

  • occurrence and trends of pregnancies growing outside the womb;
  • influence of method of contraception used on occurrence and trends of pregnancies growing outside the womb;
  • potential risk factors associated with pregnancies growing outside the womb;
  • trends in management of pregnancies growing outside the womb over the last decade.
Read the detailed description

The overall goal of this study is to assess the incidence rate of ectopic pregnancy over the last decade in a representative population of US women and potential risk factors associated with ectopic pregnancy.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of ectopic pregnancies

    Overall and during contraceptive use

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2018

  2. Person-time at risk

    Person-time at risk is the time without ectopic pregnancy [in years, months, or days] that all subjects contributed to the study since enrollment.

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2018

  3. Number of ectopic pregnancies

    During contraceptive and non- contraceptive use

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2019

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Risk factors for ectopic pregnancies

    Investigated risk factors comprise various demographic and clinical factors, contraceptive use and reproductive factors.

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2018

  2. Accuracy of electronic health data to identify diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy

    Assessment by chart review of random samples of 0.001% of women per site and year.

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2018

  3. Accuracy of electronic health data to identify contraceptive method at time of diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy

    Assessment by chart review of random samples of 0.001% of women per site and year.

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2018

  4. Accuracy of electronic health data to identify contraceptive method over time

    Assessment by chart review of random samples of 0.001% of women per site and year.

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2018

  5. Accuracy of electronic health data to identify induced abortions

    Assessment by chart review of random samples of 0.001% of women per site and year.

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2018

  6. Numbers of ectopic pregnancies managed surgically

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2018

  7. Numbers of ectopic pregnancies managed medically

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2018

  8. Risk factors for ectopic pregnancies

    Risk factors will be investigated in women with current contraceptive use and non-contraceptive

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2019

  9. Accuracy of the contraceptive algorithm

    Trained abstractors will conduct chart reviews.

    Measured: Retrospective analysis of data from 2009 to 2019
