Study Claims Telemed Abortions Safe, Despite Deaths

Study Claims Telemed Abortions Safe for Women Despite Deaths | LifeNews.com: A new study conducted by a pro-abortion research group based in California claims the use of telemed abortions — giving women the abortion drug without physician supervision — is safe. But pro-life advocates say that’s not the case.

Daniel Grossman, an assistant clinical professor in the department of obstetrics and gynecology at the University of California, San Francisco and an associate with Ibis Reproductive Health, conducted the study. He says three-fourths of the women in the study who decided to obtain the abortion drug via a Skype connection with a physician rather than after an in-person consultation, preferred not having the doctor in the room.

The study claimed 94 percent of the women who took the abortion drug with the telemedicine process were “very satisfied” and the study claims women had no more side effects or complications from the abortion dug who used the computer process than those who got the drug in person. However, 25 percent of the women using the webcam process said they would have preferred to see the abortion practitioner in person.
