Abstract
A review of postabortal sepsis following a 2-year study undertaken at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, SSG Hospital, Baroda is presented here with a view to know the incidence of postabortal sepsis and septic induced abortions and to re-evaluate the effectiveness of the MTP services in reducing its impact on maternal morbidity and mortality, since the implementation of the MTP Act in 1972. It has been observed that postabortal sepsis is a major cause of maternal mortality even now and MCH service is to be improved to reduce the same.
