Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 4
Abstract
Our aim was to study acceptability of PPIUCD in our target population, based on their demographic variables including parity and mode of delivery. Method : The study was conducted at V.S.General Hospital, Ahmedabad from 1stJune,2016 to 31December,2016.CuT 380A was inserted in accepters who fulfilled the Medical Eligibility Criteria and had no contraindications for PPIUCD. They were followed up for a period of one year, and studied the various complaints and complications associated with PPIUCD insertion. Conclusion: Both the acceptance and actual insertion of IUCD were low probably because the use of IUCD is a new concept in the community. Inserting CuT 380 A at 10 minutes after placental delivery is safe leading to the expanding of the usage of IUCD meeting the unmet needs. The expulsion rates would be minimal if it was inserted by a trained provider and placed at the fundus. Even though expulsion rate high with IUCD, acceptance was high when it is inserted in postpartum period. Results: 2% of the women who delivered vaginally at VSGH, Ahmedabad chose PPIUCD and 7% of those who undergone C-Section chose PPIUCD.100 of those who received a PPIUCD (256) returned for a follow up visit which is 39%.48.04% of those who inserted IUCD were 2nd para and 37.5% primi para , 11% 3rd para and only 3.47% of 4th para opted for IUCD.6% of all patients demand removal and 3 % demand re-insertion.PPIUCD continuation rate in my study is 83.9%.Only 1 patient had misplaced IUCD in follow up, apart that no patient encountered any serious complication.
