Quote: “Data from Leogane-Haiti project allows some insight into the reasons from abortion related complication and their treatment. 77 % of the abortion related complications (incomplete abortion) were successfully treated with manual vacuum aspiration. Among these cases (n = 438) 55 % of the women stated that the abortion had been provoked, 41 % women stated a spontaneous abortion and in 4 % of the cases, the abortion was in fact complete” (Internal document).
