Serum creatine kinase does not predict ectopic pregnancy

To evaluate the discriminatory ability of maternal serum creatine kinase (SCK) as a test for ectopic pregnancy (EP). Serum creatine kinase concentrations were obtained prospectively from symptomatic patients being evaluated for early abnormal pregnancy. Serum creatine kinase concentrations from all...

Zusammenfassung:	To evaluate the discriminatory ability of maternal serum creatine kinase (SCK) as a test for ectopic pregnancy (EP). Serum creatine kinase concentrations were obtained prospectively from symptomatic patients being evaluated for early abnormal pregnancy. Serum creatine kinase concentrations from all patients and from a subset of these patients with maternal serum β-hCG concentrations
