OBJECTIVE: Induced abortion is the second most common reproductive health procedure in Canada. Among all Canadian women, 31% will have at least one induced abortion in their life. Unfortunately, abortion services are disparate throughout the country. With the recent introduction of mifepristone in Canada, it is hoped that access to abortion will be improved. However, it is recognized that some women who are eligible for medical abortion with mifepristone will still choose surgical abortion. The purpose of this study was to understand the patient's motivation to choose surgical abortion instead of medical abortion.
METHODS: A survey was given to a sample of women coming to the Women's Clinic at Kingston General Hospital in Kingston, Ontario, for surgical abortion who qualified for medical abortion at the time their appointment was made. The study was approved by the Queen's University Health Sciences and Affiliated Teaching Hospitals Research Ethics Board before data collection (#6022783) (Canadian Task Force Classification II-2).
RESULTS: This study was conducted between February 13, 2018 and June 1, 2018. In agreement with previous studies, the most common perceived advantages of surgical abortion were that it is faster and requires fewer visits. Therefore, one of the greatest perceived obstacles to medical abortion is the need for follow-up.
CONCLUSION: Being able to offer two highly effective options for induced abortion will hopefully improve equitable access to abortion. To increase women's acceptance of medical abortion as a feasible option, we need to consider making some changes to the follow-up plan in our clinic.
