Women were eligible if they were 15-24 weeks pregnant and the fetus had a malformation or chromosomal abnormality;, those with an allergy to prostaglandins, a history of cesarean delivery or hysterotomy, active bleeding, asthma, a deficiency of ammotic fluid or ruptured membranes were excluded. The term hysterotomy is used when the intent is to deliver a dead baby. I do completely agree with showing a mother or couple an intact stillborn baby, which can be accomplished with a late-second-trimester or third-trimester induced labor or, more rarely, hysterotomy (cesarean for a fetal demise). |
