Intra-amniotic prostaglandin PGF2alpha (THAM salt) and the laminaria tent in midtrimester termination of pregnancy.

Abstract:

:20 patients underwent intraamniotic administration of PGF2alpha for termination of pregnancies ranging from 14-20 weeks gestation. Success was achieved in 18 patients (90%) with this method. The 2 failures were terminated vaginally with adjunctive use of intracervical laminaria and intravenous pitocin induction. 10 of the patients had intracervical laminaria placed 4-24 hours prior to drug administration. This latter group was noted to have a shorter induction-abortion interval, shorter onset of uterine contractions, and a decreased incidence of vaginal bleeding prior to abortion. No serious side effects occurred in either group of patients. Clinical toxicity in the form of gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea and vomiting were common but could generally be controlled with antiemetics. No significant changes were recorded in blood counts, platelet counts, liver function tests, and renal function tests from pretreatment values and at 24 and 48 hours posttreatment. There were no instances of hemorrhage, fever, or infection which occur as complications of hypertonic saline abortion.
