title: [Analysis of indications in late pregnancy interruption on a two-year material].
abstract: Indications for a late pregnancy interruption on a two-year material (2002-2003) were analyzed. In the stated period, there were 101 interruptions of advanced pregnancy in total, out of which 52 occurred in 2002 and 49 in 2003. Out of the total number of interruptions, social indications were the reason in 54 cases, which amounted to 53.46% of the whole material, wherein they amounted to 53.84% in 2002, and in 2003 to 53.06% of indications for late interruption. Average gestational age of patients was X=15 Weeks in 2002, and X=14 Weeks of pregnancy in 2003. Average age of patients in the first year of research was X=29, and in the second year X=28 years of age. Pregnancy interruption was carried out by prostaglandin induction. Average induction-abortion interval was X=9.2 hours for the first group, and X=8.2 hours for the second one. The increased number of social indications for late interruptions in advanced pregnancies is a result of difficult economic conditions of living, and medical ignorance as well.
