ABSTRACT
The present study was carried out to compare the safety and efficacy of Misoprostol with Surgical Evacuation in the management of abortion. 100 women as specified by the inclusion and exclusion criteria were recruited for this prospective observational study. 50 subjects (Group A) were managed medically by Misoprostol and 50 subjects (Group B) underwent Surgical Evacuation. Clinical outcome, time taken for expulsion, number of doses required, mean duration of hospital stay, mean analgesic requirement, mean blood loss and side effects were compared between the two groups. It was concluded that vaginal administration of Misoprostol is a safe, effective and cheap alternative to surgical evacuation. No serious adverse effects were observed with Misoprostol.
