Summary

The objective of his study is to quantitatively evaluate a patient's pregnancy status using their beta-hCG levels when using venipuncture blood vs peripheral blood.

Detailed description

The objective of his study is to quantitatively evaluate a patient's pregnancy status using their beta-hCG levels when using venipuncture blood vs peripheral blood. This data will help the investigator compare trending levels of beta-hCG levels in pregnant patients between venous blood vs peripheral blood which may help determine levels at which the peripheral blood may no longer be detectable on a POC pregnancy test.
