En este artículo se presentan estimaciones alternativas de la magnitud del aborto inducido en la Argentina, logradas utilizando dos metodologías apropiadas a situaciones en que el aborto, como en este caso, es ilegal. Uno de los métodos (diseñado por S. Singh y D. Wulf) consiste en una expansión del número de egresos hospitalarios por complicaciones de aborto. El otro (propuesto por H. Jhonston y K. Hill) se basa en el modelo de Bongaarts que relaciona la fecundidad real observada con la fertilidad potencial, la prevalencia de uniones, de uso de métodos anticonceptivos, de aborto y de infertilidad postparto (los cuatro determinantes próximos más importantes). Como se trata de estimaciones indirectas, la intención es presentar un rango de valores dentro de los cuales se encontraría el "verdadero" número de abortos y mostrar en detalle la fundamentación científica de cada estimación para que pueda ser examinada y replicada.
This article examines alternative estimates of the prevalence of induced abortion in Argentina. The estimates were made using methodologies appropriate to situations in which, as in this case, induced abortion is illegal. One of the methods (designed by S. Singh and D. Wulf) is to extrapolate from the number of women leaving hospital following treatment for complications from abortion. The other (proposed by H. Johnston and K. Hill) is based on the Bongaarts model which compares observed real fertility with potential fertility, the prevalence of free unions, use of contraceptive methods, abortion and postpartum infertility (the four major proximate determinants). Since these are indirect estimates, the intention is to present a range of values within which the real number of abortions lies, and to detail the scientific basis of each estimate so that it can be examined and replicated.
