  2. Objectives • Describe the study design and methods • Review key findings from Pre-CHOICE surveys • Review important findings from CHOICE • Discuss dissemination and translation of results into practice

  3. Unintended Pregnancy in the U.S. • Over 3 million unintended pregnancies • 59% mistimed • 39% unwanted • 1.2 million abortions • 367,752 births to teens 15-19 years • Contraception • 52% non-use • 43% incorrect use Finer Contraception 2011; Hamilton NCHS 2012; Frost Guttmacher Inst 2008

  4. Long-acting Reversible Contraception (LARC)

  5. Study Primary Objectives • To increase the acceptance and use of long-acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) methods among women of childbearing age • To measure acceptability, satisfaction, side-effects, and rates of continuation across a variety of reversible contraceptive methods, including long-acting reversible methods

  6. Study Hypotheses • Increase IUD use • Sentinel clinics from <2% to 6% or more • Post-abortion insertion <1% to 10% or more • Increase implant use to 3% or more • Observe higher 12-month continuation rates for LARC vs. other methods • Population outcomes • Teen pregnancy decline by 10% • Repeat abortion decline by 10%

  7. Study Design: Prospective Cohort ELIGIBLE

  8. Study Inclusion Criteria • 14-45 years • Primary residency in STL City or County • Sexually active with male partner (or soon to be) • Does not desire pregnancy during next 12 months • Desires reversible contraception • Willing to try a new contraceptive method

  36. Main Findings from CHOICE • Women overwhelmingly choose LARC • LARC methods associated with higher continuation & satisfaction than shorter-acting methods • Regardless of age • LARC methods associated with lower rates of unintended pregnancy • Increasing LARC use can decrease unintended pregnancy in the population

  38. The Secret: 3 Key Ingredients • Education regarding all methods, especially LARC • Reframe the conversation to start with the most effective methods • Access to providers who will offer & provide LARC • Dispel myths and increase the practice of evidence-based medicine • Affordable contraception • Institute of Medicine recommendation, Affordable Care Act, Medicaid Expansion
