DESCRIPTION
Reproductive life planning (RLP) is a client-based assessment of personal life goals to determine if and where childbearing fits in with education, family, relationships, work, and more. This assessment then informs the development of a flexible strategy to prevent or plan future pregnancies in order to successfully meet these goals.
However, getting patients to modify their health or sexual habits isn’t always easy. The practice of motivational interviewing (MI) is an effective catalyst for behavior change. MI is a quick, effective, client-centered counseling technique that allows clients to define their own goals and make their own choices by helping them identify what is personally meaningful and valuable in their own lives, and to act in ways that will help them meet their goals. Best of all, it works.
This full-day pre-conference workshop introduced participants to the core concepts of motivational interviewing, placed within the context of reproductive life planning, a process which allows individuals to make appropriate decisions regarding their sexual and reproductive health, desire to have children, and birth spacing.
Participants learned the basic techniques of motivational interviewing and discovered how to help clients assess their own goals, make a plan that will help them meet those goals, and find ways to overcome obstacles that may occur along the way.

Counselling For MTP by DR ALKA MUKHERJEE NAGPUR M.S. INDIAalka mukherjee
Pre-procedure counselling Pre-procedure counselling is important for the following reasons: l It helps the woman to decide about the termination of pregnancy l It helps the woman to choose the method of termination l It ensures that the consent for the procedure is given after receiving complete information about the procedure and understanding its implications l It helps the woman to adopt a contraceptive method after the procedure
Important notes for the counsellor on post-abortion contraception l Roughly 75% women ovulate and 6% conceive within two to six weeks after abortion, if they are not using contraception l All modern contraceptive methods can be safely provided immediately after the first trimester abortions (caution to be taken for second trimester abortions) l The continuation rate for post-abortion insertion of IUCD is good. Insertion of IUCD immediately after the first/second trimester abortions is not associated with a higher risk of expulsion, infection or bleeding l Abdominal tubectomy can be safely performed concurrently with MTP. Laparoscopic ligation should be done only after the first trimester abortions
Critical steps during post-procedure counselling: l Continue to ensure privacy and confidentiality and an empathetic attitude l Enquire from the woman how she is feeling and reassure her in case of any problems l Inform her that she should avoid intercourse till bleeding stops or condoms should be used l Repeat the information about post-procedure care and ensure that the woman understands it fully Inform her that she should return to the hospital in case of: l Severe abdominal pain l Heavy vaginal bleeding l Fever, fainting, abdominal distention or severe vomiting Call the woman for a follow-up visit in a week’s time and counsel her again if she had not accepted any form of contraception
Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

2. INTRODUCTION
It is important to help women and their
partners to gain increased control over their
reproductive health.
One of the main ways you can do this is
through counselling on family planning
methods during late pregnancy, the
postpartum and the post-abortion periods.
3. What skills will I develop?
• Providing information that builds on
existing knowledge
• Facilitating shared problem-solving and
decision-making
• Tailoring to specific family planning
needs.
4.
5. ROLE OF FAMILY PLANNING COUNSELLOR
• The role of family planning counselling is to support a
woman and her partner in choosing the method of family
planning that best suits them and to support them in
solving any problems that may arise with the selected
method.
• During late pregnancy, after giving birth and after an
abortion, it is important that the woman or the couple
receives and discusses correct and appropriate information
so that they can choose a method which best meets their
needs.
• If a woman, preferably with her partner, is able to make
6. COUNSELLING A WOMAN ON FAMILY PLANNING
AFTER AN ABORTION
You can support her and her partner in choosing a method
that meets their needs:
• If she has no post-abortion complications or infection, she
can safely use any family planning method, and can start all
methods immediately post-abortion (except for the natural
calendar method, when she should wait for 3 months).
• If an infection is present or suspected, advise her to avoid
intercourse until the infection is ruled out or fully treated.
Delay female sterilization and IUD insertion until an
infection is fully treated, but offer other methods to use in
7. • For IUD insertion or female sterilization after a
second trimester abortion, the provider may need
special training because of the changed uterine
size and the position of the fallopian tubes.
• If she thinks she could be at risk of getting
STI/HIV, she should use a condom in all sexual
relations.
• It may also be helpful to explain emergency
contraception, and offer her emergency
contraceptive pills to take home in case she needs
8. Male partner
• Within the community, men also need to participate in
discussions on the importance and benefits of family
planning and birth spacing.
• Men need to understand their role in reproduction so that
they can share the responsibility for family planning and
birth spacing.
• This can be done through outreach work or through
discussion with men when they accompany their wives or
partners to the health facility
9. HELPING A WOMAN TO CHOOSE A METHOD THAT IS RIGHT
FOR HER
To start the counselling process, remember the steps and skills
1. Assess the situation, her needs and information gaps
In order to help counsel a woman on family planning, it is very
important to discuss her and her partner's specific needs and
situation.
• you can ask if she knows about family planning, what she has
heard about it, and if she knows it is important;
• explain that it is important to know that she can become
pregnant soon after giving birth if she is not exclusively
breastfeeding;
you should also ask whether the woman or couple already have a
family planning method in mind – those people who receive the
10. When discussing her needs and situation, you can ask
about:
• plans for having more children;
• whether she and/or her partner want to use family
planning;
• previous methods used and reasons for success or
failure;
• experience with side-effects;
• popular beliefs about family planning and how these
affect her decision to choose a particular method;
11. 2.Help to prioritize solutions, narrow down options and make a good choice
You can then discuss various family planning methods based on the needs and
situation of the woman and her partner. Key method characteristics that can be
discussed include:
1. Can the method be used while breastfeeding?
2. How effective is it?
3. Are there any side-effects?
4. Does it provide protection from STIs or HIV?
5. Does it impact on sexual relations?
6. How easy is it to use?
7. Is it easy to stop using the method?
8. Is the method reversible?
9. How quickly will fertility return once method is stopped?
10.Is there a need to do something before intercourse? (e.g. putting a
condom on, inserting a diaphragm)
11.Is it used continuously, or only used when needed?
12. 3.Check if she is eligible to use the chosen method
Before giving out detailed information on method use,
check if the woman is eligible to use the method.
Some women who have recently given birth or who are
breastfeeding may be unable to use certain methods .
You can also check if she is able to start using the family
planning method straight away.
Some health conditions may prevent a woman from using
certain methods.
13. 4.Provide useful information on the chosen method
Women and their partners need accurate information to use a family planning
method correctly.
Although too much information can be unhelpful or off-putting, there are some
key pieces of information that must be explained:
• What the method is and how it works
• How effective it is at preventing pregnancy
• Side-effects: what the user can expect, and what to do about them
• How to use the method correctly
• What to do in case of a mistake in the use of the method or problems
(missed pills, late for injection, condom splits)
• Information on when to return to the clinic
• Signs of complications to watch out for.
• The best way to check whether a woman knows how to use the method is to
ask her to explain to you in her own words how to use the method.
