RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: In response to the Covid-19 lockdown, we developed a new abortion protocol in a family planning in Brussels. This study evaluates the effects of the lockdown on the abortion management and its impact on patients' characteristics. METHODS: A retrospective study compared the characteristics and management of patients who terminated their pregnancies at the same family planning (CHU Saint-Pierre Brussels) between 14 March and 6 May 2020 and during the same time period in 2019. RESULTS: Patients having an abortion in 2020 (n = 87) were in average two years older compared to patients having abortions in 2019 (n = 93) (31 years ± 13 vs 29 years ± 13 p < .011), the number of abortions was similar to those of previous years, and the characteristics of the population were identical. The management of abortions has changed significantly as the patients terminated their pregnancies earlier in 2020 than in 2019 (7 W and 1 day ± 3 days versus 8 W and 5 days ± 3 days p < .01), mostly with medication and at home (61.4% versus 2% p < .001), but with similar effectiveness. CONCLUSION: Due to the lockdown, we have accelerated the time required to obtain an appointment and shortened the delay between the abortion request and the pregnancy termination, permitting an earlier management mainly through the use of medical- and at home abortion. Given the satisfactory results, we consider now to implement this new protocol beyond the lockdown period.
