<\/div>

Americans United for Life recently released a report based on inspection records from abortion facilities in 39 states. The report, UNSAFE<\/a>, concluded that \u201cwomen are being killed and injured in unspeakable numbers in a virtually unregulated regime of \u2018abortion on demand.\u2019\u201d While the entire report is disturbing, several cases stand out as particularly egregious.<\/p>\n

Medication overdose<\/strong><\/p>\n

At New Woman All Women Healthcare, a registered nurse gave two women an overdose of the medication Vasopressin, a hormone intended to combat heavy bleeding. Instead of drawing 0.02 cubic centimeters, she drew up 2 cubic centimeters, which is 100 times the recommended dose.<\/p>\n

Both women began violently vomiting. They had to be rushed to the hospital by ambulance for treatment.<\/p>\n

According to records on the incident, the nurse had just graduated and hadn\u2019t gone through a \u201ccomprehensive orientation\u201d when she was hired at the abortion facility. In characterizing her training, the records say that she followed the RN Supervisor around for a \u201cfew days to see how [the facility] did things.\u201d She then began seeing patients.<\/p>\n

This was one of many examples of poorly trained staff working at abortion facilities.<\/p>\n

Heavy bleeding and serious injuries<\/strong><\/p>\n

A woman undergoing a late-term, two-day abortion procedure at the Hartford GYN abortion business in Connecticut suffered \u201cincreased bleeding with large clots.\u201d She was brought back twice to the abortion procedure room for more surgery but wound up needing to be transferred to the emergency department of a hospital.<\/p>\n

There were abortion complications in Florida as well. According to the report:<\/p>\n

Inspections of Florida\u2019s abortion facilities found multiple incidents involving failures to report patient injuries during abortions, including a patient hospitalized due to bowel perforation, and a second trimester abortion that resulted in a perforated uterus.<\/em><\/p>\n

There were two incidents in Louisiana described in the report. One woman experienced heavy bleeding after a botched abortion. Her life was put in danger because the abortion facility had no emergency IV fluids available. The woman was hospitalized and survived but had to undergo a hysterectomy, leaving her unable to have children for the rest of her life.<\/p>\n

In another case, a woman who had an abortion by pill experienced heavy bleeding eight days afterward. She was brought by an abortion worker to the hospital, and the abortion facility failed to document and report the incident.<\/p>\n
