Abstract

Background: Subclinical pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a common condition among women with lower genital tract infection and is believed to be responsible for a greater proportion of PID-related sequelae than acute PID. Subclinical PID is diagnosed histologically after endometrial biopsy. In the literature, many different histologic criteria have been used to define subclinical PID. Goal: To determine if endometrial plasma cells are commonly found in women at low likelihood of PID. Study: A cross-sectional study of 33 women undergoing tubal ligation and at low likelihood of PID was performed. At the time of tubal ligation, study participants underwent visualization of pelvic organs and an endometrial biopsy, which was analyzed for the presence of neutrophils and plasma cells. Demographic, clinical, and microbiologic data were compared among women with and without endometrial plasma cells. Results: Endometrial plasma cells were identified in one third (33%) of the asymptomatic, fertile, healthy women in our cohort. The presence of plasma cells was not associated with lower genital tract infection, including bacterial vaginosis. Laparoscopic evidence of fallopian tube damage was similar in patients with and without endometrial plasma cells (22% in each group). Conclusion: Plasma cells are commonly found in the endometria of healthy women and may not represent upper genital tract inflammation.

Abstract

Three pocket manuals written for new obstetric and gynecology medical providers may assist them in learning how to provide care for outpatients. Residency training is mostly concerned with hospital inpatients, while practicing OB-GYN doctors spend most of their time caring for patients in the office. The three pocket manuals were written for medical students, junior residents, and advanced practice nurses to use in the outpatient setting. The manuals stress effective communication between provider and patient as well as reproductive care for healthy women. Assessment of the manuals' effectiveness should be conducted.

Abstract

Women can face unpleasant surprises in health care coverage. High malpractice insurance costs have caused some OB-GYN doctors to no longer deliver babies, meaning their patients have to find another doctor for this. Some states have passed conscience clauses which allow pharmacists and physicians to refuse to provide birth control or emergency contraceptions.
