Feasibility of Immediate Postpartum Long-acting Reversible Contraception Implementation

February 11, 2021 updated by: Michelle H. Moniz, University of Michigan

Immediate Postpartum LARC Implementation: Pilot Study at Michigan Medicine

The objective of this study is to test and disseminate tools that drive successful immediate postpartum Long-Acting Reversible Contraception (LARC) implementation. The long-term goal is to reduce unintended pregnancy soon after childbirth by increasing access to immediate postpartum LARC for women who desire it.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Based on previous work, the investigators have generated a toolkit to guide the integration of immediate postpartum LARC services into widespread clinical practice. In the proposed work, this toolkit will be used to initiate immediate postpartum LARC services in a single site with low baseline immediate postpartum LARC uptake (Michigan Medicine). The investigators will conduct a feasibility study using mixed methods to assess acceptability and appropriateness of toolkit items; patient experience of care; immediate postpartum LARC utilization rate; and prenatal contraceptive counseling rate.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available.

Pre-Implementation Patients
Enrolled patients will take online surveys following a prenatal or a postpartum visit.

All enrolled patients will take online surveys following a prenatal or a postpartum visit. A subset will be interviewed after the postpartum survey.
Other: Implementation Toolkit
Post-implementation patients and providers will be assessed after the implementation toolkit has been used to improve service delivery at the study site.
Post-Implementation Providers
All enrolled providers will take online surveys at 6-12 months after program implementation, and a subset will be interviewed.
Other: Implementation Toolkit
Post-implementation patients and providers will be assessed after the implementation toolkit has been used to improve service delivery at the study site.
