Medical Knowledge. Describes the differences between medication and aspiration abortion Identifies factors pertinent to abortion care during patient history review Describes the expected process of an uterine aspiration Describes the expected process of a medication abortion Identifies contraindications to medication abortion Knows appropriate use of medications Knows appropriate use and interpretation of laboratory tests Identifies features of ectopic pregnancy Knows contraceptive options and contraindications to specific methods Knows indications for sonography ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: SIGNATURE OF EVALUATOR: DATE: CORE COMPETENCIES FOR EARLY ABORTION CARE BY PRIMARY CARE CLINICIANS: FIRST TRIMESTER ASPIRATION ABORTION Primary, secondary and tertiary prevention of unintended pregnancy (Xxxxxx 2011) is an essential element of sexual and reproductive health care, a specialty of primary medical care and public health services. Early abortion care is considered one component of secondary prevention of unintended pregnancy. This document describes the entry-level specialty competencies for primary care clinicians providing early abortion care, regardless of setting. These specialty competencies are the essential knowledge, behaviors, and skills that primary care clinicians should be able to demonstrate upon application for practice in abortion care and secondary prevention of unintended pregnancy. They are intended to supplement the health-professional core competencies for primary-care clinicians (e.g. CNM, DO, MD, NP, PA) as well as population-focused competencies (e.g. women’s health care, family practice) (Informed by HWPP 171, TEACH 2012 , and UK SRH 2012 Curricula).
