Wearable Devices and Intelligent Application in Women’s Postpartum Repair for Smart Healthcare

Wearable devices are more and more widely used in the field of smart healthcare. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of contraceptive counseling and education on contraceptive behavior of women after induced abortion. The investigators will explain the situation of this topic to the respondents and select the respondents in strict accordance with the framework requirements of sampling design. All the data are from the induced abortion women in the first-, second-, and third-level hospitals, which reduces the selection bias of the respondents. It is found that the proportion of induced abortion among college students is the highest, reaching 66.03%. This study is helpful to reduce the incidence of unwanted pregnancy, induced abortion, and repeated abortion and improve the reproductive health of women.

Analysis of contraceptive behavior of female athletes of reproductive age

The article presents the materials of a large-scale study devoted to the study of the contraceptive behavior of female athletes of reproductive age, representing different sports. It has been established that the most commonly used types of contraception, in all age categories, are: interrupted intercourse, spermicides, barrier contraception (male condoms), hormonal patches. The most rarely used are hormonal contraception (single-phase and three-phase combined oral contraceptives) and intrauterine contraception. It has been established that the choice of a particular type of contraception among athletes is determined by such leading factors as sexual activity, frequency of sexual contacts, the number of sexual partners, the presence or absence of a family and marriage.

Gynecological morbidity in girls and adolescent girls in a large industrial city

The results of randomized complex clinical andlaboratory examination of 1540 girls and juveniles are drawn, which characterize the rate and the structure of gynecological pathology under conditions of an industrial city. Gynecological morbidity proved to be closely associated with the state of somatic health in girls. Disorders of menstrualfunction occupy the most important place in the structure of gynecological pathology, dysfunctional uterine bleedings prevailing over other kinds of pathology. Anonymous questionnaire of 1700juveniles revealed some peculiarities of their reproductive and contraceptive behavior. The age of the beginning of sexual life at the average comes up to 14,6 0,5 years in the city of Ufa (an average age over Russia 16,1 years), the rate of juveniles who use adequate contraceptives being very low (9,5%). The article gives light to the problems of elaborating the system of organizational and medico-prophy lactic measures for girls and juveniles with gynecological pathology andputtingthem into practice.

Papillomaviral infection and cervical diseases in pregnant women. Risk factors of social status, reproductive and contraceptive behavior

Aim. To determine the risk factors for human papillomavirus of high carcinogenic risk (HPV HCR) and cervical diseases (CD) in pregnant women associated with the social status, reproductive and contraceptive behavior. Materials and methods. Design: open-label comparative non-interventional cohort study in parallel groups. The total number of patients 330 people, of whom 148 women were negative for HPV and 182 women were positive. They were divided into 4 groups depending on the presence or absence of CD. Methods: analysis of anamnesis data, general clinical, test Kvant-21 to determine HPV, cytological examination, extended colposcopy. Results. The most significant risk factors for HPV HRS infection were identified: history of mycoplasma infection (OR 5.9) and BV (OR 5.3), alcohol consumption (OR 4.0). A history of STIs (trichomoniasis and chlamydial infection), as well as more than 3 sexual partners (OR 2.7) were also significant. The most significant risk factors for CD in HPV-infected women were: age over 35 years (OR 3.8), a history of bacterial vaginosis (OR 3.0), and lack of regular screening (OR 2.4). The coitarche earlier than 16 years old (OR 2.2) also mattered. There were also found factors indicating a low risk of HPV infection the use of condoms (OR 0.3), and a low risk of CD was indicated by age under 25 years (OR 0.2) and regular screening (OR 0.3). Conclusion. HPV infection with HRS and the prevalence of CMC in pregnant women against the background of HPV infection is associated mainly with social risk factors, to a lesser extent with factors of reproductive and contraceptive behavior.

The Contraceptive Behavior of Young Women Raised in Foster Care

This study investigated the relationship between parental gure sex education and former foster alumni’s contraceptive behavior. Data from 75 women aged 18-25 from the 2011-2015 National Survey of Family Growth were analyzed. There was no association between parental gure sex education and contraceptive behavior (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 0.26; 95% CI: 0.34–2.34, p > 0.05). Women with fewer sexual partners were less likely to use contraceptives than those who had multiple sex partners. Future research is needed to determine how the foster care system impacts partaking in high-risk sexual behaviors.

Male Contraceptive Behavior in Rajshahi District of Bangladesh

This article examines the actual scenario of male involvement either as a user of contraceptive methods or supportive reproductive partners of women on contraceptive use in Rajshahi district of Bangladesh. The analysis shows that, knowledge and use of contraception are low in our study area. Comparative figures of contraceptive practice between men and women found a large disparity. Findings reveal that the user rate of all male contraceptive methods (e.g., condom at 17 percent) is still low compared to that of female methods (pill at 33.8 percent), which shows that men like to impose contra ceptive responsibility on women. Identification of socio-economic and demographic differentials affecting contraceptive behavior of men is performed through the technique of logistic regression. This paper elucidates that education, residence, fertility preference, mass media facility and knowledge about AIDS are the significant factors to influence contraceptive practices among men. Regarding the factors shunning the contraceptive practice we found that men’s opposition to use contraceptive methods is as most significant. The next reason for not using is related to contraceptive method.
