A 29-year-old woman who is 3 months pregnant presents with vaginal bleeding and lower abdominal pain. An ultrasound reveals an intrauterine pregnancy with no fetal cardiac activity. The document outlines the procedure for manual vacuum aspiration (MVA) to manage her condition of missed abortion under 12 weeks gestation. MVA involves using a hand-held plastic aspirator to evacuate the uterine contents in an aseptic procedure that takes 10-15 minutes. It has advantages over other termination techniques like less pain, reduced risks, and shorter hospital stay. Precautions, potential complications, and post-procedure care are also described.
