Reproductive Failure


SW Sandler

Abstract

The need for the establishment of a Reproductive Failure Clinic at Groote Schuur Hospital was considered long overdue, as it was felt that there were a number of high risk pregnancies continually being lost among the large volume of pregnant women attending the routine, busy and overcrowded antenatal clinics, Various criteria for the referral of pregnant women to the clinic are outlined, together with a scheme of investigation and management. Special investigations, other than routine antenatal tests, are presented and discussed with reference to their aetiological role in causing reproductive catastrophes. The results of work performed at the clinic are presented.
