Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In second trimester abortion above 22 weeks the investigators usually inject intra-cardiac Kcl for feticide. Digoxin intra-amniotic injection has been described in the literature in doses of 1-1.5 mg. with a success rate of about 80%, and up to 24 weeks. Our aim in this study is to investigate the safety and success rate of 1.5-2 mg. digoxin, intra-amniotic up to 30 weeks pregnancy .
