Search filters

Contraception search filters
Ready-made and reliable searches from Flinders Filters are available on the topics of Long Acting Reversible Contraceptive (LARCs) methods, emergency contraception, and contraception in general.
Each search can be used on its own for broad retrieval, or combined with your own topic of interest for a more focused search.

LARC search filter
The Long-Acting Reversible Contraception (LARC) search finds literature relating to methods of contraception that require administering less than once per cycle or month. This includes copper intrauterine devices and the progesterone-only LARC methods (intrauterine system, injectables and the implants).

Emergency contraception search filter
This search retrieves literature on medications or devices used to prevent pregnancy after unprotected intercourse or after a recognised contraceptive failure.

Abortion and contraception search filter
An example of combining a search with your own topic of interest is the abortion and contraception search. This search shows how the broad contraception search can be combined with a more specific topic (abortion). This combined search identifies literature on the potential role of contraception education and family planning services in reducing the rate of abortion.
