Summary

Surgical abortion is one of the most frequently surgery of women in the world. 43 millions are annually performed in the world.

90% of the abortions are performed during the first trimester of pregnancy before 13 weeks. Legal surgical abortion during the first trimester of pregnancy is a low risk intervention with a mortality rate lower than 1/100 000 abortions, with a risk of complications from 0.3 % to 3.4 %.

Conditions

  • Surgical Abortion

Interventions

DRUG

Mifépristone versus Misoprostol

The women will be randomized into two groups: Mifépristone group and Misoprostol group. The main endpoint will be the per-operating pain. The other endpoints are the pre and post-operative pain, the complications (cervical tearing, uterine perforation, hemorrhage requiring the use of blood products or an hemostatic intervention), the surgical time necessary to terminate the pregnancy, the side-effects of the drugs. The amount of per-operating bleeding and the duration of the intervention . The investigators assume that the use of Mifepristone in the cervical preparation of the surgical abortion under LA would reduce the per-operating pain. The number of patients required is 55 in each arm.
