Race/ethnic disparities
Economic disparities

Limitations Self report of abortion history
Unit of analysis is abortion event, not woman
Missing values
Cannot exclude medically indicated abortions
![Page 48: Patient Characteristics of Repeat Induced Terminations of Pregnancy — New York City, 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816176550346895dd10246/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Conclusions Repeat abortions comprised over half of all
abortions
Repeat abortion common across all sociodemographic characteristics
Race/ethnicity strongly correlated with repeat abortion
![Page 49: Patient Characteristics of Repeat Induced Terminations of Pregnancy — New York City, 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816176550346895dd10246/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Next Steps Identify interventions to integrate with
abortion visits
Include post-abortion contraception in surveillance
Reduce barriers to provision of long-term contraception
Further research needed on race/ethnic disparities
