Abstract
Introduction
Induced abortions have earned much popularity in the last few years because of their greater safety and large impact on population control and on untimely or unwanted pregnancy. As many women, due to the lack of awareness, come in the late pregnancy i.e. later first trimester and early second trimester for termination, it becomes difficult to terminate by this method. Carboprost Inj and Misoprostol, are very safe and effective cervical softening agents with low cost, stability in light and climatic variations before the termination of pregnancy.
Materials and Methods: A prospective study using single intra muscular injection of carboprost and misoprostol tablets were administered to 100 patients each and were analysed according to the age, parity, gestational age, extent of cervical dilation achieved, procedure time, amount of blood loss and the complications.
Results and Discussion: Nearly 30% of the patients were between 25 – 34 of age, 88% were married and around 59% were of Parity 1 or 2. Vomiting was the most common type of complication in Group A and highest blood loss was seen among the 14th week of gestation patients in both groups.
Conclusion
Manual evacuation of MTP has always resulted in very good results in early pregnancies but in late pregnancies, the use of Carboprost Inj or Misoprostol is more effective and safe with equally good results
