Abortion is increasingly being incorporated into primary care training programs. It remains unclear if women, given the option, would accept and access these services with their primary care provider.
An anonymous survey was administered to 299 women at two abortion clinics in New York and Chicago.
One hundred seventy-four (58.2%) respondents theoretically would choose their primary care clinic for their abortion procedure, with more Chicago participants than New York participants choosing primary care. After adjusting for other variables, only being very or somewhat comfortable with one's primary care provider regarding issues of pregnancy prevention and birth control predicted the choice of primary care for abortion services.
The majority of women surveyed theoretically would choose to have a procedure at their primary care clinic. There were some regional differences between New York and Chicago. Although many variables used in this study did not explain the respondents' preferences, the primary care clinic as site for abortion care appears to be an important potential option for many women. Primary care training programs should teach full-spectrum reproductive healthcare to help meet the needs of their patients.
堕胎越来越多地被纳入初级保健培训计划。目前尚不清楚，如果妇女有选择的话，她们是否会接受并由其初级保健提供者提供这些服务。
在纽约和芝加哥的两家堕胎诊所，对 299 名妇女进行了匿名调查。
174 名（58.2%）受访者理论上会选择他们的初级保健诊所进行堕胎手术，选择初级保健的芝加哥参与者多于纽约参与者。在调整其他变量后，只有对自己的初级保健提供者在怀孕预防和节育方面非常或有些舒适，才能预测选择初级保健进行堕胎服务。
接受调查的大多数妇女理论上会选择在其初级保健诊所进行手术。纽约和芝加哥之间存在一些地区差异。尽管本研究中使用的许多变量并不能解释受访者的偏好，但初级保健诊所作为堕胎护理场所似乎是许多妇女的一个重要潜在选择。初级保健培训计划应教授全方位的生殖保健知识，以满足患者的需求。
