The title reads "Miscarriages induced by grandma or midwives not only maim the woman, they also often lead to death". "Выкидыш" here refers to a miscarriage. This was part of a campaign against these illegal abortions that many people in rural areas were still getting and cracking down on the people that were still performing them illegally aka "БаБка и акушерка" referring to self taught grandmas and midwives, not legal medical professionals. Abortions were legal in medical settings at this time.
yes midwives during this time could apply outside of hospital settings, as in not a medical professional but someone who helps women give birth and care for them, as was most common in rural places. This isnt referring to the legal abortions that were available to women administered by medical professionals in legal hospital settings.
