PIP: Because of psychological reactions in the nursing staff working with abortion patients, mental health consultations were requested by several hospitals in Hawaii after abortion became legal. Many of the nurses had strong emotional reactions to the abortion work. They reacted more strongly to saline abortions than to suction curettage because of the similarity to actual labor. Many of the nurses had trouble switching roles from traditional obstetric nurses to working with abortion patients. The authors concluded that "it is crucial to include nurses in the policy making processes... The option of not working on abortion cases must be kept open." Abortion cases should be segregated from general maternity cases to help avoid some of the conflicts in nursing care. The emphasis should be on first trimester abortions for medical and psychological reasons. More research is needed on the woman's attitude toward abortion and pregnancy, with special reference to delay in discovering pregnancy.
