| Each Operative Procedure is counted separately. Total 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 |
| (2) Hispanic Induced Abortions is a separate count equal to Hispanic White + Hispanic Black + Hispanic Other + Hispanic Not Stated |
