[Analysis of abortion trends in the Zenica-Doboj Canton].

Abstract

Authors present results of statistical analysis of data of abortions, in period since 1980 up to date. The frequency and trend of the abortions in the entitled canton of Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, in the period 1980-1989 and 1996-2001. It was found that the percentage of abortions had been yearly growing, from 66 cases per 100 deliveries in the year 1980, 88 cases in the year 1985, to 97 cases in the year 1989. Comparing to Zenica-Doboj Canton, in the regions of Doboj, Tuzla, Sarajevo, the number of abortions in the mentioned period was remarkably higher varying from 127 to 178 cases per 100 deliveries. It is worthy to notify that in the period 1996-2001 the participation of young women in the abortions with the percentage of 2.5% in the year 1996, had been rather indicative showing the tendency of growing during the rest years of the investigated period. The women of the age group between 25 and 39 were the main candidates for artificial abortions, the ladies within 30-34 years of age being most predominant. It is also remarkable that in the last four years the elderly ladies (elder than 49 years of age) showed the tendency of artificial abortions, up to 0.49 cases per hundred deliveries.
