在英格兰和威尔士，约40%的堕胎是通过真空抽吸完成的。人们普遍认为，为了合法，这些手术必须由医生进行。这项研究旨在对相关法律和支持这一假设的临床证据进行详细的重新评估。仔细阅读相关法律就会发现，这一假设是没有根据的。相反，受过适当培训的护士或助产士作为多学科团队的一部分，进行真空吸引术是合法的。这一法律解释提供了开发更精简、更具成本效益的堕胎服务的潜力，这将是患者既安全又高度接受的服务。
Some 40% of abortions carried out in England and Wales are done by vacuum aspiration. It is widely assumed that, in order to be lawful, these procedures must be performed by doctors. This study aimed to provide a detailed reassessment of the relevant law and the clinical evidence that supports this assumption. A close reading of relevant law reveals that this assumption is unfounded. On the contrary, it would be lawful for appropriately trained nurses or midwives, acting as part of a multidisciplinary team, to carry out vacuum aspiration procedures. This interpretation of the law offers the potential for developing more streamlined, cost-effective abortion services, which would be both safe and highly acceptable to patients.
