Routine follow-up visits after first-trimester induced abortion.
TL;DR: Little evidence is found that mandatory follow-up visits typically detect conditions that women themselves could not be taught to recognize, and protocols that require in-person follow-ups after abortion may not make the best use of a women's time or abilities, or of the medical system.

Dilys Walker,Susanna R. Cohen,Jimena Fritz,Marisela Olvera,Héctor Lamadrid-Figueroa,Jessica Greenberg Cowan,Dolores Gonzalez Hernandez,Julia C Dettinger,Jenifer Fahey +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that PRONTO’s highly realistic, locally appropriate simulation and team training in maternal and Neonatal emergency care may be a promising avenue for optimizing emergency response and improving quality of facility-based obstetric and neonatal care in resource-limited settings.
Journal ArticleDOI
