- efficacy
- side effects, including bleeding patterns and guidance of management
- patient suitability, contraindications, and medication interactions
- patient consent
- timing of initiation of contraception
- insertion procedure, including anatomical considerations
- removal procedure
- reinsertion procedure
- post-procedure patient advice
- advice for complex implants, such as deeply inserted implants.
Implanon NXT® insertion and removal simulated practice on model arms will occur in small groups under observation by experienced Implanon NXT® clinical educators via Zoom webinar.
