Abstract:
Implanon is a contraceptive device with a high reliability in the prevention of pregnancy. The insertion is a simple procedure but the physician must master this skill. A number of cases have been recorded in which the rod appeared to have disappeared, which sometimes led to an unwanted pregnancy and sometimes ended in claims for compensation. There are a number of tips the physician can use to make sure that the insertion is done properly. At present, training in the insertion of this device is only offered by the company that sells Implanon. The question arises whether the professional group of GP's or gynaecologists should take over this responsibility.
