Filter by:This is a randomized, single-blind study using oxytocin 5U i.v. during surgical abortion in one arm of the study, and no medication in the other arm of the study. Comparison is done between the two groups measuring the following outcomes: pain, nausea and blood loss. The investigators' hypothesis is that there will be no significant differences between the two groups.
This double-blind, randomized study will compare the efficacy and acceptability of mifepristone 200mg followed in 36-48 hours by 400mcg or 800mcg of buccal misoprostol (i.e., in the cheeks) for termination of pregnancy in women up to 63 days LMP.
The hypothesis of the study is that the induction abortion interval time will be significantly shorter in the group receiving vaginal misoprostol every six hours in comparison to the group who are receiving vaginal misoprostol every twelve hours.
The purpose of this study is to compare two methods of pregnancy termination on the time to delivery in the second trimester.
This open-label, randomized study is being conducted to determine whether a dose of 400 mcg of sublingual misoprostol (i.e., under the tongue) taken 24 hours following administration of mifepristone 200 mg is effective and acceptable at inducing an abortion compared with misoprostol taken orally. The goal of this study is to provide answers to the following four questions: 1. Is a regimen of medical abortion with mifepristone using sublingual misoprostol at least as effective as using oral misoprostol up to 63 days since the last menstrual period (LMP)? 2. Are the side effects with sublingual use tolerable for women? 3. Is sublingual administration of misoprostol acceptable to women? 4. Is one of the regimens (sublingual or oral) superior in terms of efficacy, safety (side-effects) or acceptability?
