Brief Summary:
The feasibility of Sayana Press self-injection and the potential for this practice to increase contraceptive continuation has never been assessed in family planning programs in low-resource settings The Malawi Ministry of Health MOH and the United States Agency for International Development USAID Malawi Mission requested the Advancing Partners and Communities APC project to assess self-injection of Sayana Press to inform their decision-making for procurement of Sayana Press and distribution through the health system in Malawi
Detailed Description:
Sayana Press is a subcutaneous formulation of depot medroxyprogesterone acetate DMPA in a prefilled auto-disabled injection system called Uniject Pfizer Inc USA Sayana Press was registered with the Medicines and Health Care Products Regulatory Agency MHRA and several other national regulatory agencies The addition of this method is anticipated to aid in improving provision of family planning services in low-resource settings As such Sayana Press could be particularly useful in a country such as Malawi where injectable contraception is the most common method used DMPA clients and providers are ready to explore the potential of self-injection of Sayana Press A study conducted in a large family planning clinic in Edinburgh Scotland found self-administration of DMPA-SC feasible and associated with similar continuation rates and satisfaction to clinician-administered DMPA-IM A non-comparison study conducted in Planned Parenthood clinics in Florida found continuation of self-injected DMPA-SC high 74 at the fourth injection Participants in this study reported the injection to be easy and convenient and were likely to recommend self-administration to other women Moreover on September 29 2014 Pfizer submitted a request to the MHRA to change the Sayana Press label to include self-injection
If self-injection is found feasible the results from this research will inform self-injection training materials messages for providers and clients and future scale-up efforts in Malawi and elsewhere in sub-Saharan Africa
