   Interrupted pregnancy often from 2 to 10 weeks by type of tubal abortion or rupture the pipe.
With tubal abortion ovum gradually peeled away from the pipe wall , blood accumulates in the pipe partially , partly falls into the abdominal cavity with the dead fetal egg. Fallopian tube is broken . There is bleeding into the abdominal cavity , often life-threatening women .
   Signs . For tubal abortion is characterized by: delayed menstruation followed scarce dark bloody discharge from the vagina , the appearance of short , often one-sided , cramping pain , often accompanied by dizziness or semiconscious state .

The patient complains of sudden sharp pain in the abdomen , extending to the upper quadrant, right shoulder blade , anus. Weakness, dizziness , tinnitus , nausea . Notes brief loss of consciousness. Pale skin , blue lips , frequent pulse , weak , blood pressure decreased , sometimes not determined . If bleeding into the abdominal cavity and develops a massive shock, vomiting occurs , the skin is covered with cold sweat , body temperature decreases , the patient becomes lethargic, listless , does not respond to others.

   Assistance . Give the patient a horizontal position with a few feet up . Release the chest from impeding breathing clothes and linen : unbutton her blouse , bra. To reduce bleeding , on the abdomen should put an ice pack , bottle or plastic bag with cold water or any cold object . You can give a good glass of warm sweet tea or 1 - 2 tablespoons of valerian tea , brandy to prevent the development of shock.
