About: Abstract Study Objectives Many pediatric providers serving adolescents are not trained to offer comprehensive contraceptive services, including intrauterine devices (IUDs) and implants, despite high safety and satisfaction among adolescents. This study assessed an initiative to train providers at school-based health centers (SBHCs) to offer students the full range of contraceptive methods. Design Surveys were administered at baseline pre-training and at follow-up three months post-training. Data were analyzed using generalized estimating equations for clustered data to examine clinical practice changes. Setting Eleven contraceptive trainings across the US from 2016-2019 Participants Two hundred-sixty providers from 158 SBHCs serving 135,800 students Interventions On-site training to strengthen patient-centered counseling and equip practitioners to integrate IUDs and implants into contraceptive services. Main Outcome Measures The outcomes included counseling experience on IUDs and implants, knowledge of patient eligibility, and clinician method skills. Results At follow-up, providers were significantly more likely to report having enough experience to counsel on IUDs (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 4.08; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.62—6.36]) and implants (aOR: 3.06; 95% CI, 2.05 – 4.57). Provider knowledge about patient eligibility for IUDs, including for adolescents, increased (p<0.001). Providers were more likely to offer same-visit IUD (aOR: 2.10; 95% CI, 1.41 – 3.12) and implant services (aOR: 1.66; 95% CI, 1.44 – 1.91). Clinicians’ skills with contraceptive devices improved, including for a newly available low-cost IUD (aOR:2.21; 95% CI, 1.45-3.36). Conclusions Offering an evidence-based training is a promising approach to increase counseling and access to comprehensive contraceptive services at SBHCs.   Goto Sponge  NotDistinct  Permalink
