Patient-initiated follow-up in gynaecology: Patient and clinician views

CONCLUSIONS: In this study, both patients and clinicians are in favour of selected use of PIFU in gynaecology services. Both questionnaires found younger patients with benign gynaecological conditions were perceived as best suited PIFU. We recommend offering PIFU to select patients who are confident in self-monitoring, factoring patient choice so patients are not disadvantaged by this system. Further evaluation of PIFU in practice is needed before widespread implementation.PMID:38705009 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejogrb.2024.04.032
