Report on Induced abortion –methods of termination of pregnancy till 12 wks of gestation , pre abortion
counseling

Def…. deliberate artificial termination of pregnancy until 22 ges. wks in a manner that ensures that the embryo\
fetus does not survive,
I incidence- 1:4 preg world wide.
Classification;1. early-till 12wks. –late-12-22wks
2.medical/planned-●decided by mother. no risk for preg.
-●due to complications of preg.(therapeutic)
maternal risk associated with contraction of preg/ fetal abortion associated with genetic chromosome structural
defects
note; chromosome defect anencephaly, down, fetal malformations
●w/out compli- malignancy, syphilis, rubella, cmv, hiv, hf, pulmonary failure ,kidney problems.
3.surgical
medical
indications
preg<22wks ●,continuance of preg would involve risk to the life of mother greater than if the preg was terminated.
● termination to prevent physical/ mental health ,injury of preg female or existing child of family.
●substantial risk if child born for physical/mental abnormalities.

4. On request of mother.
5. Social factors.

Methods
• Early surgical – 1.D&C
2.vaccum curettage till 5-6 wks maximum.
• Medical – 3. RU 486 (mifepristone) – antiprogesterone,
4.Laminaria – if products of conception are large.

Note:- Ru 486 – 400 – 600 μg – p/o followed in 36 – 48 hrs i/m or vaginal prostaglandin analog,
Used for preg < 7wks 79% effective.
- Methotrexate with Misoprostol (pg) – 800 μg 1wk +/- require ….cuation later i/vaginal a/f 2wks
(single) at 8wks Embryo’s expected Spontaneously if not check hCG
50mg/m³, 90% effective level
If abortion fails within 36hrs, PgE, methylester pesary (Gemeprost 1mg vaginaly to complete abortion,
process Misoprostol (Pg…)

• Surgical:
Done under local anesthesia / light general
D&C:
o Tapered dilatators in progressively ↑in size with the Ø of the …cannula is real size of the
cannula correlates with gestational age,
o Laminaria in cervical canal atleast for 4+ or overnight,
o Prostaglandin E1 analogue.
After dilation curette is inserted and taken out usually performed after 7 – 12 wks.
D&E is performed from 12 – 18 wks.
Methods of late abortion:
1. Vaginal prostaglandins:
 Gemeprost vagitorium (Pg E1 analogue),(Cergem) 1mg every 3 hours until abortion has happened
(+vacuum curettage)
 Misoprostol (Pg E1 analogue) vag. 200 μg every 3 hours
 Dinoprostone supp. (Pg E2) 20 mg every 3 hours
 Dinoprostongel (Prepidil) 0.5 mg.
2. RU - 486 Mifepristone (Mifepristone) 150 – 200 – 600 mg p/o then in 24-48 hours +prostaglandins .
3. Extra – amniotic: Intermittent injection or continuous infusion:
 Dinoprost (Pg E2α) 0.25 mg followed by 0.75 mg every hour
 Diniprostone 0.05 mg followed by 0.2 mg every hour.

Advantages for suction (best for early)


Empties uterus rapidly
• ↓ Blood loss < 2%,
• ↓ risk for perforation of uterus < 1%.
Complications for suction
Ink – < 1%
Mortality – 1/100:1000.

Note: - D&C - other indications:


• Dg of abnormal uterine bleeding,
• Endometrial polyps.
Adverse effect ↑ chance for Asherman syndrome

LATE.
Induce the labour.
Medical – i/uterine Pg E2 / F2α
i/uterine hypertonic urea
Extrauterine Pg E2 / F2α
Vaginal Pg

D&E (13 – 18 wks)– dilate with laminaria or Pg E1 and evacuate with larger cannula. Paracervical blockage + i/v
sedation.

Complications – Hemorrhage (Atony / laceration),


Perforation.
Rarely infection.
(Retention of tissue is uncommon)

Intra amniotic (>14-16wks) – Amnio infusion:


I. Hypertonic saline – 200 ml  Necrosis of Endometrium (10-20%)
II. Urea (better)
III. Glucose (CI – DU)
IV. Natural Pg
V. 1/2 + augment with oxytocin
Amnio infusion is done :
1) via abd wall (w/ U.S control
2) transcervically
3) transvaginally
N:…-
Mortality of mother ↑ with GA.
Laminaria can be used a few hrs b/f amniocentesis to ↓ risk of cervical injury.

Complications of amnio infusion:


Bleeding + Allergy  Fetal death release of endogen contract the uterus  expelled fetus. Wait for 48 hrs
contraction is absent then induce contractions.

C.S (crporal) or/ Hysterectomy and Hysterotomy  can be done at any stage of pregnancy, but ↑ risk for
rupture in next pregnancy. It ↑ morbidity + mortality neither is as a 1ْ met.
Indications: Failure to complete a midtrimester, abortion due to cervical steno sis or failure in management of
other complicant. Transverse cut’s impossible: lower segment is not developed (develops one after 30 GW) +
Istmus is 1 cm (12 cm labour).
Complications:
• retained placenta – 30-46% infection (prophylactic a/b)
• cervical laceration
• failure of labour (to expulse the products of concep.)

Menstrual regulation – 4-6 wks:


Aspiration of endometrium within 14 d after mensed menstrual cycle or within 42 d after beginning of last
menstrual period by small cannula attached to low pressure suction eg:-syringe / suction – machine. No need for
anesthesia / paracervical block.
Complication - persistant pregnancy.

Post abortion procedures:


1) product of conception examined to validate complete evacuation + Hydatiform mole.
2) Instruct to alert for danger sign - ↑ tْ , chills, muscle ache, tired, … pain, cramp, block ache, tender
abdomen, prolonged or heavy bleed, foul vaginal discharge, delay >= 3 m in resuming periods.
3) HCG ↓ gradually so (+) after procedure in blood. (… after 14 d)

Pre – abortion counseling


10-19% Late complications, > 16GW  ↑ mortality.
Complications: - Immediate – during / 3hrs after procedure,
- Early (within the following 28 d)
-Late (a/f 28 d)
Immediate + Early:
1. hemorrhage (↓ with suction + highest in saline)
2. cervical injury – use of LA instead of GA (Laminaria to ↓ cervical injury) ↑ in nulliporous …org cervix.
3. uterine perforation (Multiporty, Advanced GA, inexperienced operator ↑ risk – usage of laminaria ↓ risk.
Serious consequences  hemorrhage + damage to intra abdominal organs.
4. Acute haematometra - ↓ vaginal bleeding, enlarged tender uterus, repeat curettage and administer oxytocic
agents.
5. Anesthesia complications (Anaphylactic shock)
6. Amniotic …….. ---“--- - collapse, DIC, bleeding.

Late:
• infection – ascending ; Exogenous.
• Bleeding. 3-6 d after retention,
• Recurrent miscarriages
