    Abstract:
    Complications following early induced abortion by vacuum aspiration were examined in a controlled study. Data were collected on healthy women 7--12 weeks pregnant at the time of abortion. No association was found between complication rates and age, marital status, or parity. However, women in their first pregnancies and those who had experienced an induced or spontaneous abortion in their previous pregnancy had a higher rate of complications following the current induced abortion.
