Birth Control Methods

230
Vasectomy is a surgical form of male sterilization that involves severing and sealing the vasa deferentia, preventing sperm from mixing with semen during ejaculation. Because a vasectomy does not impact the testes' ability to produce testosterone, hormone levels, libido, and sexual function generally remain unchanged. While vasectomy is highly effective in preventing pregnancy, with a success rate near 99.85%, rare cases of recanalization (spontaneous reconnection) can occur. Although...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention I

2.0K
A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.
The health belief model (HBM) attempts to predict health-related behavior in specific belief patterns. According to the HBM, a person's...

Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.
The best practices for preventing healthcare-associated infections include hand hygiene, patient risk...

Strategies for Assessing and Addressing Confounding

92
Confounding is a critical issue in epidemiological studies, often leading to misleading conclusions about associations between exposures and outcomes. It occurs when the relationship between the exposure and the outcome is mixed with the effects of other factors that influence the outcome. Given that, addressing confounding is of high importance for drawing accurate inferences in research.
Confounding can be addressed at both the design phase of a study and through analytical methods after data...

Health promotion allows a person to control the determinants of health, resulting in an improved health status. It enhances the quality of life and reduces premature deaths. Health promotion and illness prevention programs help people make beneficial choices to reduce the risk of disease and disabilities. There are three health promotion and illness prevention levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.
In primary prevention, actions taken before disease onset prevent the disease from...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Reproductive Health
  • Sociomedical Sciences

Background:

  • Stringent abortion laws correlate with increased induced abortions and maternal health risks.
  • Induced abortions are a significant public health issue in Iran, driven by complex, under-researched factors.
  • Understanding decision-making determinants is crucial for addressing induced abortion prevalence.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design an intervention program aimed at reducing induced abortions among couples in Iran.
  • To identify and understand the key factors influencing the decision to undergo induced abortion.

Main Methods:

  • A three-phase approach combining qualitative methods (I-change model), systematic review, and the Delphi method.
  • Phase 1: Qualitative exploration of factors influencing induced abortion.
  • Phase 2: Systematic review of determinants and prevention strategies.
  • Phase 3: Expert consensus via Delphi method to prioritize strategies and develop a prevention program.

Main Results:

  • The study will result in a comprehensive, I-change model-based intervention program for induced abortion prevention.
  • Identification and prioritization of key factors and strategies to mitigate induced abortion occurrence.

Conclusions:

  • The developed program offers a framework for preventing induced abortions, thereby reducing maternal morbidity and mortality.
  • Dissemination of findings aims to advance induced abortion prevention programs and inform public health policy.
  • Successful prevention contributes to improved population health and potential growth rates.
