Diagnostics

Initial Assessment

Initial Impression: Suspected Placental Abruption
Justification for F2 Classification:
- High probability of serious obstetric complication based on presentation
- Patient experiencing severe pain, vaginal bleeding, and contractions
- Potential for rapid deterioration of both maternal and fetal condition
- Time-sensitive condition requiring prompt medical evaluation and intervention

Differential Diagnoses:
1. Placental Abruption (high probability)
2. Preterm Labor (less likely given pain severity and bleeding)
3. Placenta Previa (less likely given pain profile)
4. Uterine Rupture (less likely but needs consideration)

Required Actions:
- Dispatch of ground EMS with ALS capabilities
- Initiate IV access and administer oxygen
- Continuous fetal monitoring if available
- Prepare for rapid transport to nearest hospital with obstetric services
