Earlier Pregnanch Scans to prevent Missed Miscarriage
The NHS conduct scans too late on in pregnancy for missed miscarriages to be recognised, women are left too late and suffer more because of this. Earlier scans, more frequent scans need to be conducted.
Most miscarriages occur at the start of pregnancy. The overall probability of a pregnancy ending in miscarriage in the UK is: 25% at four weeks; 5% at eight weeks; 1.7% at 12 weeks; and 0.5% at 16 weeks.
More than 80% of miscarriages occur within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. After 12 weeks, the rate decreases rapidly.
