Purpose Of Review:
This review summarizes evidence about barriers to abortion care pre- Dobbs and post- Dobbs , inequities in abortion access, and approaches to improving access to abortion care with use of patient navigators.
Recent Findings:
The Dobbs decision and resulting state-level restrictions exacerbated economic, knowledge, and logistic barriers to abortion care. Abortion funds and emotional support are two main resources to help address these barriers; however, only with coordination can patients and clinics fully benefit from the resources. Patient navigation provides that coordination. Evidence shows it improves reproductive outcomes, is acceptable to patients and providers, and engages community health workers and community-based organizations.
Summary:
Increasing legal restrictions and barriers to abortion care have motivated advocates to identify effective interventions to facilitate patient-centered and culturally competent care. Navigators have improved postpartum care by increasing attendance, education and helping coordinate overall care. They have improved referrals and access to abortion care in statewide programs.

01:20Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
