| When there is more than one operative procedure, each operative procedure is counted separately. Thus the total of all operative procedures will be greater than the total of Induced Abortions. |
|
| For Induced Abortions occurring in New York City, only primary operative procedure is reported. |
|
| New York City combines saline and prostaglandin injection and this combination is reported in the saline injection procedure. |
|
| 1 Total Induced Abortions = White + Black + Other + Not Stated. Total includes records with Information Not Stated |
| 2 Hispanic Induced Abortions is a separate count equal to Hispanic White + Hispanic Black + Hispanic Other + Hispanic Not Stated |
