What
to Expect
Initially,
you will be asked to complete some information forms. Next, you will have
an ultrasound evaluation to assess gestational age. Afterward, Dr. Campbell
will sit down with you and discuss the procedure, postoperative care, future
contraception, and any questions or concerns you may have. After-hours contact
information will be provided.
Next, you (and a support person if you wish) will be taken to a treatment
room where the procedure will be performed. Pre-operative medication will
be given at an appropriate time before the procedure. There will be a brief
observation time after the procedure, usually 15-30 minutes, to make sure
there is no excessive bleeding or other problems. Overall you can expect
to be in our facility a total of 1-3 hours.
An antibiotic, a prescription for pain medication, and an injection of Rhogam
for Rh negative patients will be provided after the surgery.
