Integrating routine screening for pregnancy intention and contraceptive use into care of women who use alcohol or other drugs
As with other studies, our studies demonstrate low rates of contraceptive use and high rates of interest in contraception use among women who use drugs. The PIS tool was completed by all women to whom it was offered, suggesting high levels of patient acceptability. Integration of a PIS tool was effective in identifying women with contraceptive needs and was acceptable to women.
