This manual leads health care providers through the LEEP procedure to remove precancerous cervical lesions that cannot be treated with cryotherapy. These Standard Operating Procedures describe the equipment, step-by-step procedure, safeguards in practice, and infection prevention guidelines surrounding LEEP and recommended follow-up schedules and procedures.
