One of every four US women has an abortion and at least as many have a miscarriage. In a growing number of communities, women need to travel considerable distances to obtain clinical assistance with an abortion or miscarriage. Such travel is a particular burden for rural and low-income women. Both early abortion and miscarriage can be managed with a single dose of oral mifepristone followed by misoprostol. Many patients prefer to receive these family planning services from their trusted primary care provider.
Curriculum for online training
This activity is designed to increase primary care providers' ability to counsel patients about using mifepristone to terminate an early pregnancy. This involves: Identifying patients who can safely use mifepristone; Counseling patients how to take the medications; Evaluating patients with possible side-effects.
