摘要:
Objectives: To investigate provision of immediate postpartum (iPP) highly effective contraception in Massachusetts. Study design: We performed logistic regressions evaluating contraceptive implant, intrauterine device, and permanent contraception procedures occuring during delivery admissions between 2017 and 2021, analyzing outcomes by method reversibility and delivery type. Results: Hispanic and privately-insured patients had higher odds of receiving any iPP method, whereas patients delivered at non-teaching hospitals had lower odds of receiving any method. Patients who were Hispanic, publicly-insured, or delivered at non-teaching hospitals had lower odds of receiving reversible compared to permanent methods. Conclusion: Differential uptake of iPP contraception suggests programming opportunities to address unmet postpartum contraception needs. (c) 2024 Elsevier Inc.
