From the Paper:

"A standard definition from the Encyclopedia and Dictionary of Medicine, Nursing and Allied Health would describe this termination of pregnancy as, "-is the termination of pregnancy before the fetus is viable. In the medical sense, the terms abortion and miscarriage both refer to the termination of pregnancy, before the fetus is capable of survival outside the uterus. In general language, however, abortion most often refers to a deliberate interruption of pregnancy, whereas miscarriage connotes a spontaneous or natural loss of the fetus". A study conducted in Iowa, United States, showed more prevalent rates of abortions or induced terminations rather than miscarriages or spontaneous ones, and that even amongst younger women on a general trend."
