Key clinical point: Three countries that implemented an immediate postpartum family planning (IPPFP) intervention that focused on long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) showed a significant increase in the number of girls and women who opted for an IUD or implant within 48 hours of delivery.
Major finding: The mean percentage of IPP LARC adoption among all deliveries in the countries that implemented the intervention programs was 10.01%, compared to 0.77% in countries providing standard postpartum care without the intervention.
Study details: The data come from a review of immediate postpartum long-acting reversible contraception (IPP LARC) from 2016 to 2019 in three countries that focused on LARC intervention (Democratic Republic of Congo, Somalia, and Pakistan) including training delivery-room providers on counseling and provision of IPPFP; and three countries the did not implement this intervention (Rwanda, Syria, and Yemen).
Disclosures: The study was supported by an anonymous foundation. The researchers had no financial conflicts to disclose.
