ABSTRACT
PIP: Concurrent abortion and sterilization are preferred by many women to avoid a 2nd hospitalization, operation, and, in some instances, general anesthesia. Several authors have shown concern, however, that the 2 procedures carry a higher risk of morbidity when performed concurrently versus separately. To determine whether the concurrent performance of sterilization and induced abortion is as safe as the 2 procedures performed separately, women undergoing these procedures from 2 separate multicenter, prospective, national US studies were selected: the Joint Program fro the Study of Abortion and the Collaborative Review of Sterilization. Using standard definitions of major morbidity, the crude rate of 1 or more major complications was calculated to be 0.9% for the abortion only group, 1.7% for the group concurrent abortion and tubal sterilization. Thus the authors' data suggest that performing concurrent abortion and sterilization is as safe as performing those procedures separately.
