Filter by:This study was carried out as a cross-sectional-relationship searcher in order to determine the effect of evaluating the relationship between health literacy and family planning attitudes of postpartum women. The population of the study consisted of puerperant women in the Postpartum Clinic of Osmaniye State Hospital between March 2022 and June 2022. The sample of the research is; puerperant women who applied to the hospital for delivery within the research dates and gave birth in a healthy way, did not have any risk for the mother and the baby, had no communication barriers and met the research criteria. The sample number of the study was calculated using the G*Power 3.1.9.4 program. The puerperant women who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study with the method of improbable random sampling, and a total of 258 puerperant women were reached. In data collection; Socio-demographic and obstetric characteristics of puerperant women, descriptive information form including questions about current birth, Postpartum Family Planning Attitude Scale The Health Literacy Scale was used. In the study, a very strong positive correlation was found between the women's total PAPTS score and SAS total score (p=0.000). In other words; As the health literacy levels of postpartum women increase, their family planning attitude levels also increase
This study will assess the nature and impact of social norms and networks to promote FP (Family Planning) intervention effects among low parity, married adolescent and young women in the Maradi region of Niger. Research activities will be layered on top of the USAID-funded Kulawa FP program that seeks to change FP-related behaviors among young, low parity women at scale in Niger in a subset of implementing villages. Kulawa, implemented by Save the Children U.S. (SCUS) and funded by USAID (2020-2025), will include small-group discussion for young, low parity girls coupled with community dialogues to address individual, social, and health system constraints to FP use and influence social norms that govern FP use. UCSD will not provide any services or implement any interventions as part of this study.
The clinical study will compare two lubricated polyurethane male condoms of different thickness with a marketed lubricated control male condom made of natural rubber latex. This crossover study will randomize 300 heterosexual couples to the sequence in which they use five condoms of each of the three study condom types. The clinical failure (breakage and slippage) rates of the two polyurethane condoms will be compared to the clinical failure (breakage and slippage) rate of commercial natural rubber latex control condom using a statistical test of non-inferiority. The study will also compare the acceptability of the two polyurethane condom different thickness with that of the natural rubber latex control condom obtained from interviews and questionnaires with subject couples.
The purpose of the study is to learn more about menstrual changes in progestin contraception users. The investigators are hoping to find out what changes in the endometrium lead to different bleeding patterns during the first year of progestin contraception use. Participants will choose to receive the contraceptive implant (Etonogestrel implant also called Nexplanon) or the contraceptive injectable (Depo-medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) also called Depo-Provera) for up to 12 months. They will be asked to have 4 endometrial biopsies over the course of the study, as well as blood draws, physical exams, and pregnancy tests. Participants will also use a daily text message or email diary to report bleeding patterns. This study's plan is to comprehensively phenotype bleeding patterns and profile the entire endometrium using single-cell RNA seq data (sCRNAseq).
This study aims to examine how to implement a gender-transformative post-partum family planning program integrated into community-based infant vaccination services, and to evaluate preliminary effectiveness of this approach on postpartum contraceptive use in a low resource, rural setting.
Triggerise designed web and phone based Tiko platform to connect young girls and women to the health products, services and information. The platform uses principles of behaviour economics to motivate positive choices-including rewards, promotions, discounts, coupons, reminders, alerts etc. The platform was implemented in several cities from seven states of India to provide Sexual Reproductive Health (SRH) and maternal and child health (MCH) products and services. The consumers (called Rafikis) use Tiko card to get discounts and to earn 'Tiko miles' rewards at Tiko franchised healthcare providers and pharmacies. Tiko miles are redeemable towards lifestyle products or services (e.g., beauty salons). The local Tiko health promoter (celled Pro agent) can also buy health and hygiene products at bulk discounts and sell them at profit. Triggerise appointed Network for Engineering, Economics Research and Management (NEERMAN) to conduct an independent impact assessment of the Tiko platform with multiple research objectives include health impact evaluation at the Rafiki level. NEERMAN used an ex-post observational design to compare usage of SRH and MCH services and family planning (FP), antenatal care (ANC) and postnatal care (PNC) practices by comparing Users and Non-Users of Tiko platform, and accounting for the selection bias statistically. The structured questionnaire collected data on knowledge, practices, barriers, enablers for SRH and MCH services, exposure o Tiko platform, and how it helped or did not help. The survey participants were approx. 1200 users and 600 non-users being served by approx. 350 pro-agents in their respective operations area. The association between use of Tiko platform and various outcomes were identified using a generalized linear model with fixed effects at pro-agent level and including a set of covariates. To evaluate the effect modification by type of pro agent - government community health worker (CHW) versus others - an interaction model was used. The standard errors were automatically clustered at pro-agent level due to fixed effects. Primary outcomes are proportion of married Rafikis currently using any contraceptives, currently using modern short-term contraceptives, proportion of Rafikis who delivered a child post Jan 2019 and received at least 4 ANC check-ups, consumed at least 100 iron folic acid (IFA( during pregnancy, and received a PNC check-up within 6 weeks of birth.
Insertion under vision such as hysteroscopy allows the ability to visualize the uterus prior to insertion, to assess uterine compatibility and the assurance of proper device placement. ReLARC® is a GyneFix® device intended to be inserted via hysteroscopy. Hysteroscopic insertion of the device allows direct visualization of the procedure, which makes it extremely safe. This multicentre, open-label study will take place in the Women's Clinic of the Ghent University Hospital in Belgium (International Coordinating Centre) and in the University Hospital AOU Federico II of Naples in Italy. Primary aim: To evaluate the safety of the ReLARC® inserter during the insertion procedure of GyneFix® intrauterine copper bearing contraceptive devices by means of successful placement with adequate position during follow-up evaluations. Providing no complications develop, participants will remain in the study for 3 years. 120 women will be enrolled.
The goal of this study is to pilot test the IN-Control Birth Control Navigator Program in Central Indiana for use by adolescents who would like to access birth control. The investigators hypothesize that facilitating access to contraception through our intervention will ultimately result in increased feelings of autonomy around these decisions and use of hormonal contraception.
A single-center, open-label, parallel-group, phase 1 study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of LINO-1713 in healthy Korean female subjects
The hypothesis of this study is that the generalisation of minimal contraceptive advice in general medical consultations among women of childbearing age in Reunion Island who do not use contraception but who have sexual relations and do not wish to become pregnant within the year could induce an awareness of the risk of unwanted pregnancy and lead to a change in behaviour with regard to contraceptive methods.
