“…Ectopic pregnancy (EP) is the most common cause of female mortality in the first trimester of gestation that often requires runnable surgical intervention immediately (Lawani et al, 2013 ). In another word, any pregnancy implanted outside the endometrial cavity is defined as an EP (Jurkovic & Salman, 2016 ).…”

Ectopic pregnancy (EP) is a significant cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to explore the understanding and experience of women with EP in the Islamic Republic of Iran. This qualitative study carried out through a Heideggerian hermeneutic/interpretative phenomenological approach, using face-to-face semi-structured phenomenological interviews with twenty-five participants referred to a public maternity hospital in Rasht, Iran. Data were collected and analyzed using the seven-step analytical approach of Dickelman et al. (The NLN criteria of appraisal of baccalaureate programs: A critical hermeneutic analysis, NLN Press, 1989; Journal of Nursing Education. 32:245–250, 1993) to phenomenological studies. The results reveal how living in the shadow of Islamic Sharia Law in Iran turns EP into a trauma and creates a different experience and meaning of EP for each woman. In this view, multiple factors, including ‘family support’ and ‘faith in Islamic Sharia,’ have determined how married women experience sociocultural and psychological consequences of EP. These findings apply to women with EP in Iran. Given that EP is more than an anomalous pregnancy with socially culturally constructed suffering in the context of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Hence, policymakers and healthcare providers should consider a multidimensional approach to this devastating event in pregnancy and support and empower the women whose dream of motherhood is jeopardized and terminated by the experience of EP.

Background Pregnancy of unknown location (PUL) is a term used to describe failure of visualization of intrauterine or extrauterine gestational sac in a woman with a positive pregnancy test. Body of the abstract Ectopic pregnancy (EP) accounts for 1–2 % of all pregnancies. EP contributes to maternal mortality of a known cause by 4% in developed countries. However, case fatality rate may be 10 times higher in low-resource countries. This may be attributed to delayed diagnosis and lack of resources. PUL is a temporary term that may eventually lead to diagnosis of viable intrauterine pregnancy, pregnancy loss, or more seriously, EP. Conclusion This guideline appraises current evidence on assessment of PUL and early diagnosis of EP particularly in low-resource settings.

Pregnancy loss is an important condition that can cause intense and permanent psychological and emotional disorders for both women and their families. This situation can cause each woman to feel different emotions and give different reactions. Although the response of women to this loss differs from person to person, studies have shown that women who have experienced pregnancy loss before experience more stress, depression and anxiety. These psychological disorders are often overlooked. The care and counseling services provided during this period have a significant impact on the psychology of women. In order to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms, nurses should take initiatives to understand women and solve their problems, increase their social support and enable them to express their feelings by including their spouses in the process. In the post-disappearance period, the psychological status of women should be questioned, interventions should be made, and if necessary, they should be provided with psychological support. The Stetler model is a model used in the development of evidence-based care. The purpose of the model is to provide the best appropriate care to the patient in line with evidence-based practices. In this study, it was aimed to adapt the nursing care given for the depression and anxiety experienced by the recurrent ectopic pregnancy case to the Stetler Model.
