Checklist for Screening Clients Who Want to Initiate Use of the Copper IUD

[Full Text: PDF, 2 p., 102 kb]

Summary: Family Health International (FHI), with support from the U.S. Agency for International Development, has developed a simple checklist to help providers determine quickly and with confidence whether a client may use an IUD. Based on WHO's 2004 Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use, the checklist consists of a series of questions designed to identify any medical conditions or behaviors that would either prevent safe IUD use or require special precautions or further screening.
