| Note: Gestational age based on the clinician’s estimate. Reports with weeks of gestation
not reported are included in the 'Total' row only. Reports with principal
procedure not reported are included in the ''All Procedures' column only. The
reporting of procedures used conforms to national recommendations
issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In abortions
where more than one procedure was performed, the principal procedure was
determined according to the following hierachy: hysterectomy/hysterotomy,
sharp curettage (D&C), saline injection or prostaglandin, dilation and
evacuation, medical (non-surgical), suction curettage, and other procedures. 1This item is reported in compliance with statute MCL 333.2835(6)(a). |
