Episode notes
Comorbidities Didn’t Block Postpartum Tubal Completion
- A study found no adjusted association between medical comorbidities and completion of inpatient postpartum permanent contraception.
- Authors emphasize identifying and removing modifiable barriers so patients achieve desired postpartum contraception.
Algorithms Performed Well With Novice Operators
- Novice operators using ADNEX, two-step, ORADS 2019, and ORADS 2022 all achieved high AUCs (0.88–0.91) for adnexal mass classification.
- 'Almost certainly benign' lesions had ~2% malignancy, higher than expected, often borderline tumors or metastases.
Fragmented Care Reduces Guideline Treatment
- Fragmented care occurred in 75% of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer and reduced receipt of guideline-concordant treatment.
- Centralizing care or improving coordination may increase adherence to recommended treatment components.
