Abstract:
:A group of 120 women with gestations from 64 to 84 days received 800 micrograms of vaginal misoprostol every 24 h for a maximum of three doses without performing postexpulsion systematic preventive curettage. Outcome measures included successful abortion (complete abortion without requiring a surgical procedure), side effects, and mean time of expulsion and vaginal bleeding. Complete abortion occurred in 104 of 120 (87%, 95% CI 79, 92) subjects. The decrease of hemoglobin was statistically significant (p = 0.0001) but clinically unimportant: 12.2 mg/dL (SD 1.1) before treatment and 11.6 mg/dL (SD 1.0) after treatment. Statistically significant differences were found only between the success rates for white women in comparison with nonwhite women, in which case the success rates were higher for white than for nonwhite women. Vaginal bleeding lasted 8 +/- 5 days, spotting 4 +/- 3, and total bleeding 12 +/- 4 days. The acceptable expulsion time, the fact that postabortion systematic curettage was not needed, the clinically insignificant hemoglobin loss, and the success rate obtained show that misoprostol administered vaginally may be a valid method for interrupting gestations of 10-12 weeks. :The effectiveness and safety of vaginal misoprostol, without the need for postexpulsion systematic curettage, were investigated in 120 Cuban women seeking late first-trimester abortion (10-12 weeks). Women received 800 mcg of misoprostol vaginally every 24 hours, for a maximum of three doses. Complete abortion occurred in 104 women (87%); 87 women (73%) aborted after a single dose, 11 (9%) required two doses, and 6 (5%) received a third dose. The remaining 16 women (13%) underwent surgical abortion. Mean hemoglobin decreased from 12.2 mg/dl before treatment to 11.6 mg/dl after abortion--a difference that was statistically but not clinically significant. Side effects--which disappeared within 2 hours--included nausea (22%), vomiting (17%), diarrhea (54%), dizziness (25%), headache (19%), and chills (72%). Although 99% of subjects reported pelvic pain (99%), only 10% requested an analgesic for pain relief. Vaginal bleeding persisted for a mean of 8 days. According to logistic regression analysis, the only variable significantly associated with treatment success was race. The success rate was 94% among White women compared with 73% among Black and Black Cuban women. The acceptable expulsion period, the fact that a postabortion systematic curettage was not required, the clinically insignificant hemoglobin loss, and the high success rate all demonstrate that misoprostol administered vaginally may be a valid method for interrupting late first-trimester pregnancies.
