大多数使用阿片类药物的孕妇没有得到预期的产后避孕措施,导致意外怀孕. 增加使用长效可逆避孕等方法对这一群体至关重要.
科学领域:
- 产科和妇科
- 产妇和胎儿医学
- 生殖健康
背景情况:
- 在怀孕期间使用阿片类药物给产后护理带来了独特的挑战.
- 有效的避孕措施对于防止这一易受伤害群体意外怀孕至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 在使用阿片类药物的孕妇中比较所需与接受的产后避孕方法.
- 评估未经预期的怀孕率在未接受预期避孕的患者中.
主要方法:
- 对101名使用阿片类药物的孕妇进行了回顾性分析,并记录了他们的避孕计划.
- 排除服用阿片类药物使用障碍 (MOUD) 或接受医院阿片类药物的患者.
- 描述性统计分析避孕偏好和结果.
主要成果:
- 超过三分之二的患者在出院时没有获得所需的产后避孕措施.
- 长效可逆避孕药 (LARC) 是最受欢迎的方法;最常见的是储存的美德酸 (DMPA).
- 近28%的未接受预期避孕的患者在两年内怀孕.
结论:
- 在使用阿片类药物的孕妇中,所需和接受的产后避孕措施之间存在显著的差异.

Opioid Analgesics: Synthetic and Semisynthetic Opioids
426
Synthetic and semisynthetic opioids are pivotal in pain management and tackling opioid addiction. Semisynthetic opioids, including morphinans (morphine derivatives), oxycodone, oxymorphone, hydrocodone, and hydromorphone, have improved pharmacokinetic profiles compared to morphine. Additionally, heroin and 6-MAM (6-Monoacetylmorphine) show better CNS penetration than morphine due to heightened lipid solubility. Hydromorphone, a potent opioid, undergoes hepatic metabolism to form the active...

Birth Control Methods

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...

Opioid Analgesics: Morphine and Other Natural Cogeners
361
Opioids are a class of drugs that mimic endogenous opioid peptides and act on opioid receptors, and help in pain relief. These compounds are classified as natural, synthetic, or semi-synthetic. Natural opioids, like morphine, codeine, and thebaine, are derived from the opium poppy plant (Papaver somniferum or Papaver album) and are termed opiates. Synthetic opioids are artificial, while semi-synthetic opioids combine natural and synthetic compounds. Morphine, a prototypical opioid, possesses a...

Analgesia and Pain Management
788
Pain is critical to various clinical pathologies, provoking an urgent need for effective management. Pain, whether acute or chronic, is a complex neurochemical process. Its alleviation depends on the type, with nonopioid analgesics effective for mild to moderate pain, such as musculoskeletal or inflammatory pain, while neuropathic pain responds best to anticonvulsants, tricyclic antidepressants, or serotonin/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. For severe acute or chronic pain, opioids may be...

Drug Delivery: Parenteral Route
831
The parenteral route is a critical method of drug administration. It delivers compounds directly into the systemic circulation and bypasses the gastrointestinal tract. This approach is particularly advantageous for drugs that exhibit poor absorption or instability when administered orally.
There are three primary parenteral routes: intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), and subcutaneous (SC). The IV route introduces the drug directly into the bloodstream, ensuring immediate action. The IM route...

Opioid Receptors: Overview
1.8K
Opioid receptors, including the mu (μ, MOR), delta (δ, DOR), and kappa (κ, KOR) types, belong to the rhodopsin family of G protein-coupled receptors. These receptors are located throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems and in non-neuronal tissues such as macrophages and astrocytes. Opioid receptor ligands can be categorized into agonists or antagonists. Highly selective agonists include [d-Ala2, MePhe4, Gly(ol)5]-enkephalin or DAMGO for MOR, [D-Pen2,...
