A cluster randomized intervention study on women's continuity of effective contraception (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Preventivmedel ger kvinnan rätten att bestämma över sin kropp, reproduktiva hälsa och familjeplanering. Preventivmedel förebygger inte bara ofrivilliga graviditeter utan minskar även höga aborttal. Tidigare genomförda studier som berör preventivmedel, ofrivilliga graviditeter och aborter visar på ytterligare behov av forskning. Effektiva preventivmedel och strukturerad rådgivning har visat sig ha positiv inverkan på förebyggande av ofrivilliga graviditeter. Syfte: att undersöka om strukturerad preventivmedelsrådgivning ökar kvinnors kontinuitet i användning av effektiva preventivmedel jämfört med rutinmässig rådgivning 12 månader efter att kvinnan sökt vård på abortmottagning. Studien är en substudie av LOWE-studien. Metod: Klusterrandomiserad interventionsstudie på abortmottagningar i Sverige. Interventionsgruppen fick strukturerad preventivmedelsrådgivning med fokus på olika preventivmedels effektivitet och kontrollgruppen erhöll rutinmässig rådgivning. Data samlades in genom webbaserad enkät och telefonsamtal. Resultat: Resultatet visade att interventionsgruppen hade en högre kontinuitet i användning av effektiva preventivmetoder än kontrollgruppen. Slutsats: Kvinnor som får strukturerad rådgivning har högre kontinuitet och användande av effektiva preventivmedel samt färre ofrivilliga graviditeter än kvinnor som får rutinmässigrådgivning efter 12 månaders uppföljning. Klinisk tillämpbarhet: Denna studie kan öka kunskapen om effektiva preventivmedel och hur barnmorskor med hjälp av strukturerad rådgivning kan få fler kvinnor att välja effektiva metoder, med syfte att förebygga ofrivillig graviditet.  

Abstract [en]

Background: Contraceptives give women the right to decide over their body, reproductive health and family planning. Contraceptives not only prevent unintended pregnancies but also reduce high abortion rates. Previous studies on contraception, involuntary pregnancies and abortions show further research needs. Effective contraception and structured counseling have been shown to have a positive effect on the prevention of involuntary pregnancies. Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate whether structured contraceptive counseling increases women's use in continuity of effective contraceptives compared with routine counseling 12 months after the woman sought care at an abortion clinic. The study is a sub-study of the LOWE study. Method: Cluster randomized intervention study at abortion clinics in Sweden. The intervention group received structured contraceptive counseling focusing on long-acting reversible contraception (LARC), and the control group received routine counseling. Data were collected through a web-based survey and telephone calls. Results: The results showed that the intervention group had a higher continuity in the use of effective contraceptive methods than the control group. Conclusion: Women who receive structured counseling have higher continuity and use of effective contraception as well as fewer involuntary pregnancies than women who receive routine counseling after 12 months of follow-up. Clinical applicability: This study can increase knowledge about effective contraception and how midwives with the help of structured counseling can get more women to choose effective methods, with the aim of preventing involuntary pregnancy.
