Most participants practiced in both inpatient and outpatient settings (95.7% and 85.0%, respectively). More providers felt confident screening for sexual activity among young adults as compared with adolescents (71.9% vs 65.6%). The same was true for discussing contraceptive options (44.0% vs 38.8%, respectively). Inpatient providers reported seeing adolescents and young adults privately, discussing confidentiality, and asking about sex less than half of the time. More than 80% of providers agreed that it would be appropriate to initiate a contraceptive method for inpatients; 35.8% had done so, and 85.2% indicated that having additional consultation would increase initiation of a contraceptive method in the hospital (88.1% felt similarly for long-active reversible contraception methods). General barriers to initiating contraception included insufficient training, insufficient exposure to adolescents and young adults to maintain skills, and lack of time. Barriers specific to the inpatient setting included concerns about follow-up, confidentiality, and interference with the treatment plan.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Initiation of a contraceptive method in the inpatient setting is acceptable to providers. In our findings, it is suggested that strategies are needed to enhance provision of these services by addressing confidentiality concerns and educating providers.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1542\/hpeds.2017-0167","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,2]],"date-time":"2018-04-02T08:30:23Z","timestamp":1522657823000},"page":"194-199","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["Contraception for Adolescents and Young Adults in the Inpatient Setting: The Providers\u2019 Perspective"],"prefix":"10.1542","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Rachel L.","family":"Goldstein","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Adolescent Medicine, Stanford University, Palo Alto, California"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jennifer L.","family":"Carlson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Adolescent Medicine, Stanford University, Palo Alto, California"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bonnie","family":"Halpern-Felsher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Adolescent Medicine, Stanford University, Palo Alto, California"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"417","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,1]]},"reference":[{"issue":"9","key":"2021120817290237000_B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"843","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMsa1506575","article-title":"Declines in unintended pregnancy in the United States, 2008-2011","volume":"374","author":"Finer","year":"2016","journal-title":"N Engl J Med"},{"issue":"5","key":"2021120817290237000_B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"577","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jadohealth.2016.06.024","article-title":"Understanding the decline in adolescent fertility in the United States, 2007-2012","volume":"59","author":"Lindberg","year":"2016","journal-title":"J Adolesc Health"},{"issue":"1","key":"2021120817290237000_B3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"48","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jadohealth.2008.06.018","article-title":"Discussion of sensitive health topics with youth during primary care visits: relationship to youth perceptions of care","volume":"44","author":"Brown","year":"2009","journal-title":"J Adolesc Health"},{"issue":"1","key":"2021120817290237000_B4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"37","DOI":"10.1370\/afm.1186","article-title":"Challenges of providing confidential care to adolescents in urban primary care: clinician perspectives","volume":"9","author":"McKee","year":"2011","journal-title":"Ann Fam Med"},{"key":"2021120817290237000_B5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1542\/9781610020237","volume-title":"Bright Futures: Guidelines for Health Supervision of Infants, Children, and Adolescents","author":"Hagan","year":"2017","edition":"4th ed."},{"key":"2021120817290237000_B6","volume-title":"AMA Guidelines for Adolescent Preventive Services (GAPS): Recommendations and Rationale","author":"Elster","year":"1994"},{"issue":"12","key":"2021120817290237000_B7","first-page":"1109","article-title":"Adolescent health screening and counseling","volume":"86","author":"Ham","year":"2012","journal-title":"Am Fam Physician"},{"issue":"5","key":"2021120817290237000_B8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1148","DOI":"10.1097\/01.AOG.0000446825.08715.98","article-title":"Committee on Adolescent Health Care: adolescent confidentiality and electronic health records","volume":"123","author":"ACOG committee opinion no. 599","year":"2014","journal-title":"Obstet Gynecol"},{"issue":"2","key":"2021120817290237000_B9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e20161347","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.2016-1347","article-title":"Achieving quality health services for adolescents","volume":"138","author":"Committee on Adolescence","year":"2016","journal-title":"Pediatrics"},{"key":"2021120817290237000_B10","unstructured":"American Academy of Family Physicians.
