Methods Seventy healthy women aged 18-41 years requesting legal termination of pregnancy at 12-17 weeks of gestation were equally randomized into two groups. Two cervical preparations, the Dilapan-STM combined with mifepristone and misoprostol (DMM) method, and the mifepristone combined with misoprostol (MM) method, were used to end early second-trimester pregnancy for group DMM and group MM, respectively. Clinical outcomes and complications for these two methods were compared. Results No differences were found on rates of successful abortion within 48 h and blood loss after abortion at 2 h between the two groups (P〉0.05). DMM group had significant shorter induction-to-abortion interval and hospital stay compared with group MM (P〈0.01). In both DMM and MM groups, side effects including nausea/vomiting, diarrhea, chills and rigors, and fever occurred, and incidences of these side effects were no difference (P〉0.05). Conclusion DMM method would have similar clinical efficacies with MM method for early second-trimester pregnancy termination. Besides,DMM method has shorter induction-to-abortion interval and hospital stay, which benefits its clinical application.展开更多

Methods Two hundred and ten women with early missed abortion were equally randomized into three groups. Three cervical preparations, Dilapan-dilator method (group A, n= 70), mifepristone method (group B, n= 70), and misoprostol method (group C, n= 70), were used 24 h before curettage for terminating missed abortion, respectively. Clinical outcomes and complications for these three methods were compared. Results No differences were found in rates of successful treatment among the three groups (P〉O.05). The incidence of fitting number 8 Hegar dilator was slightly high in group A, but it was not different compared with that in group B or group C (P〉0.05). Bleeding in previous 24 h in group C was significantly greater than that in group A or group B (P〈0.01). The cases of blood loss (〉50 ml) during evacuation in group B were more than those in group A (P〉0.05). Women in group B had less abdominal pain than those in group A or group C (P〈0.01). Side effects in group C were more than those in group A on nausea (P〈0.01), vomiting (P〈0.05), and diarrhea (P〈0.01). Group B had the highest acceptability among the three groups (P〈0.05). Conclusion Three methods have the similar clinical efficacies in cervical ripening for surgical treatment of early missed abortion. Based on individual characteristics, different approach would be chosen to avoid some adverse events and improve the clinical application of Dilapan-dilator.展开更多
