Background
This relates to legal abortions, however, I thought it might be interesting to add the link in to illegal abortions to show that even legal ones are not without their risks.
A description of the experience
Anesteziol Reanimatol. 1989 May-Jun;(3):37-9. [Variants of intravenous anesthesia during artificial termination of pregnancy]. [Article in Russian] Proshina IV, Alekseev PM, Kakuliia MIu.
The use of anesthetics, analgesics and nootrops in various combinations has been analysed in 270 somatically healthy women during termination of pregnancy.
The use of calipsol in combination with diazepam or pipolphen is recommended. A concomitant use of nootropil has a marked positive effect on the postanesthesia period, minimizing hallucinations.
Adequate anesthesia is achieved by using a narcotic analgesic dipidalor in combination with N2O inhalation or reduced doses of calipsol or barbiturates.
