Introduction: Vacuum or suction aspiration is a procedure that makes use when used as a miscarriage remedy or an abortion approach, of a vacuum supply to put off an embryo or fetus via the vacuum aspiration can be used on my own or with cervical cervix. The system is finished to set off abortion, as a dilation each time in the first trimester (up to 12 weeks remedy for incomplete miscarriage or retained pregnancy gestational age). For extra advanced pregnancies, vacuum tissue, or to reap a pattern of uterine lining (endometrial aspiration may be used as one step in a dilation and evacuation biopsy). it's miles usually safe and severe headaches not procedure. Vacuum aspiration is the system used for almost all often occur. first-trimester abortions in many countries. a few sources may additionally use the terms dilation and Vacuum aspiration is an outpatient procedure that normally evacuation or "suction" dilation and curettage to consult includes a hospital visit of several hours. The technique itself vacuum aspiration, although those terms are commonly usually takes much less than 15 minutes. Suction is created with used to refer to wonderful approaches. either an electric pump (electric powered vacuum aspiration or EVA) or a manual pump (manual vacuum aspiration or MVA).

If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact our office prior to your procedure so that we may clarify any pertinent issues. Definition: HysterosCopy is an outpatient procedure that allows your doctor direct visualization of the inside of the uterine cavity (womb) by inserting a thin lighted telescope (hysteroscope) through the vagina (birth canal) and cervix, without making an abdominal incision. This procedure enables your doctor to examine the lining of the uterus, look for polyps, fibroids, scar tissue, blockages of the fallopian tubes, and abnormal partitions. In addition, this procedure allows your doctor to remove or surgically treat many of the abnormalities seen. Dilation and Curettage (D&C) allows your doctor to take a sample of the tissue that lines your uterus (endometrium) and/or to remove polyps, fibroid tumors, or hyperplasia. Suction D&C is used in cases of miscarriage.

  • HB 1429 Dismemberment Abortion SPONSOR(S): Grall and Others TIED BILLS: IDEN./SIM
    HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STAFF ANALYSIS BILL #: HB 1429 Dismemberment Abortion SPONSOR(S): Grall and others TIED BILLS: IDEN./SIM. BILLS: SB 1890 REFERENCE ACTION ANALYST STAFF DIRECTOR or BUDGET/POLICY CHIEF 1) Health Quality Subcommittee 9 Y, 6 N McElroy McElroy 2) Judiciary Committee 3) Health & Human Services Committee SUMMARY ANALYSIS Dilation and evacuation (D&E) abortions commonly involve the dismemberment of the fetus as part of the evacuation procedure. This dismemberment is performed on a living fetus unless the abortion provider has induced fetal demise prior to initiating the evacuation procedure. HB 1429 prohibits a physician from knowingly performing a dismemberment abortion. The bill defines a dismemberment abortion as: An abortion in which a person, with the purpose of causing the death of an fetus, dismembers the living fetus and extracts the fetus one piece at a time from the uterus through the use of clamps, grasping forceps, tongs, scissors, or a similar instrument that, through the convergence of two rigid levers, slices, crushes, or grasps, or performs any combination of those actions on, a piece of the fetus’ body to cut or rip the piece from the body. The bill provides an exception to this prohibition under certain circumstances if a dismemberment abortion is necessary to save the life of a mother and no other medical procedure would suffice for that purpose. Any person who knowingly performs or actively participates in a dismemberment abortion commits a third degree felony. The bill exempts a woman upon whom a dismemberment abortion has been performed from prosecution for a conspiracy to violate this provision.

  • Mifepristone and Buccal Misoprostol Versus Mifepristone and Vaginal Misoprostol for Cervical Preparation in Second-­­Trimester Surgical Abortion
    TITLE: A Randomized Double-­­blinded Comparison of 24-­­hour interval- ­­Mifepristone and Buccal Misoprostol versus Mifepristone and Vaginal Misoprostol for Cervical Preparation in Second-­­Trimester Surgical Abortion PI: Frances Casey, MD, MPH NCT03134183 Unique Protocol ID: HM20005740 Document Approval Date: April 15, 2015 Document Type: Protocol and SAP A Randomized Double-­­blinded Comparison of 24-­­hour interval-­­Mifepristone and Buccal Misoprostol versus Mifepristone and Vaginal Misoprostol for Cervical Preparation in Second-­­Trimester Surgical Abortion Principal Investigator: Frances Casey, MD, MPH, Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center Co-­­Investigators: Randi Falls, MD, Virginia League of Planned Parenthood 1. Abstract Patient preference for medications in place of osmotic dilators as cervical preparation is well known. Twenty-­­four to 48 hours following mifepristone, vaginal and buccal misoprostol have demonstrated equal efficacy in second-­­trimester medical abortion but have not been compared as cervical preparation for second-­­trimester surgical abortion. This study will randomize participants undergoing a second-­­trimester surgical abortion between 16 0/7-­­20 6/7 weeks gestation to 200mg mifepristone followed 20-­­24 hours later with 400mcg vaginal misoprostol and buccal placebo versus 400mcg buccal misoprostol and vaginal placebo 1-­­2 hours prior to the procedure. Primary outcome is intraoperative procedure time as measured by time of first instrument in the uterus (dilator if further dilation is required or forceps if no further dilation required) to last instrument out of the uterus. The study uses a superiority design and is powered to detect a 4-­­minute difference in procedure time from a baseline of 10±5 minutes with 90% power and two-­­tailed alpha of 0.05 requiring 33 participants in each arm.

Study Design: We performed a prospective study to assess the feasibility of transvaginal administration of intraamniotic digoxin the day before D&E. All women between 18 0/7 and 23 5/7 weeks of gestation seeking termination from December 2009 to May 2011 were approached for study participation. Women who declined participation were asked to identify their primary rationale. For women declining study participation, transection of the umbilical cord during D&E was performed to meet the requirements of the ban.

  • The Political and Moral Battle Over Late-Term Abortion
    CROSSING THE LINE: THE POLITICAL AND MORAL BATTLE OVER LATE-TERM ABORTION Rigel C. Oliverit "This is an emotional,distorted debate. We are using the lives ofa few women to create divisions across this country... -Senator Patty Murray' I. INTRODUCTION The 25 years following the Supreme Court's landmark decision in Roe v. Wade2 have seen a tremendous amount of social and political activism on both sides of the abortion controversy. Far from settling the issue of a woman's constitutional right to an abortion, the Roe decision galvanized pro-life and pro- choice groups and precipitated many small "battles" in what many on both sides view to be a "war" between fetal protection and women's access to reproductive choice. These battles have occurred at the judicial, grassroots, and political levels, with each side gaining and losing ground. Pro-life activists staged a nation-wide campaign of clinic protests, which led to Congress's 1994 enactment of the Federal Access to Clinic Entrances law creating specific civil and criminal penalties for violence outside of abortion clinics.3 State legislatures imposed limitations on the right to abortion, including mandatory waiting periods and requirements for parental or spousal notification. Many of these limitations were then challenged before the Supreme Court, which struck down or upheld them according to the "undue burden" standard of review articulated in PlannedParenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey.4 Recent developments have shifted the focus of conflict from clinic entrances and state regulation of abortion access to the abortion procedures themselves. The most controversial procedures include RU-486--the "abortion drug"-and a particular late term surgical procedure called intact dilation and extraction ("D&X")-more popularly known as "partial-birth abortion." The controversy surrounding the D&X procedure escalated dramatically in June of 1995, when both houses of Congress first introduced legislation to ban the procedure.
