Introduction
Prior to surgery, reputable hospitals conduct preoperative examinations for pregnant women, including complete blood count, urinalysis, ultrasound (B-mode), electrocardiogram (ECG), and routine vaginal discharge testing. These tests help determine whether the woman has any systemic diseases, whether the pregnancy is ectopic, and whether she has gynecological inflammation. Additionally, they enable precise assessment of the gestational sac’s size and location, thereby enhancing surgical safety.

Medical abortion is an effective option for managing unintended pregnancy in women. Several abortion methods are available, including medication-induced abortion (medical abortion), painless surgical abortion, conventional surgical abortion, and painless, visually guided, ultrasound-assisted abortion.

Procedure of Painless, Visually Guided, Ultrasound-Assisted Abortion

Prior to the procedure, a reputable hospital must conduct comprehensive preoperative evaluations—including complete blood count, urinalysis, transvaginal ultrasound, electrocardiogram (ECG), and routine vaginal discharge examination. These tests help determine whether the patient has any systemic diseases, ectopic pregnancy, or gynecological infections, and accurately assess the size and location of the gestational sac—thereby enhancing procedural safety.

Procedure for Painless, Visually Guided, Ultrasound-Assisted Abortion:
The surgeon wears sterile surgical attire, cap, mask, and sterile gloves after thorough hand hygiene. The patient assumes the lithotomy position (dorsal recumbent position with legs supported in stirrups). The external genitalia are draped with sterile fenestrated drapes. The uterus’s position, size, and adnexal structures are carefully reconfirmed. A speculum is inserted to expose the vagina; accumulated vaginal secretions are gently wiped away to fully visualize the cervix. After disinfecting the cervix and cervical canal, a cervical clamp is applied to either the anterior or posterior lip of the cervix. A uterine sound is then used to measure the depth and direction of the uterine cavity. Cervical dilation is performed gradually using graduated cervical dilators held in a pen-like grip—dilating the cervical os to a diameter approximately half to one size larger than the suction cannula to be used. Finally, vacuum aspiration is performed to evacuate the uterine contents.
Painless, visually guided, ultrasound-assisted abortion offers several advantages, including minimal endometrial trauma, rapid postoperative recovery, and significantly reduced intraoperative pain.

The above outlines the procedure for painless, visually guided, ultrasound-assisted abortion. Women considering this procedure should select only reputable, licensed medical institutions with qualified professionals. Postoperative care is critically important: maintain strict perineal hygiene, ensure adequate bed rest, avoid strenuous physical activity, and practice stress reduction. Nutritionally, emphasize a balanced diet rich in protein and other essential nutrients to support recovery.

We hope this information is helpful. Wishing you good health and well-being.

Can a painless abortion be performed if one has heart disease?
Painless abortion refers to painless induced abortion. Whether a patient with heart disease can undergo a painless induced abortion depends on the individual’s specific condition. If the cardiac condition is relatively stable, the procedure is generally feasible; however, if the patient’s overall physical condition is poor, surgery is not recommended. Prior to the procedure, patients must proactively inform their physician of their cardiac history and complete all necessary cardiac evaluations.
