NCT ID: NCT04139382 Terminated - Clinical trials for Abortion in First Trimester

Using Telemedicine to Improve Early Medical Abortion at Home

UTAH
Start date: January 13, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The investigators plan a trial comparing telephone consultations for women requesting early medical abortion (EMA - under 10 weeks pregnant) to regular face-to-face consultations. In Scotland, 7 out of 10 women having an abortion choose EMA. The clinic visit to discuss EMA is lengthy (2-3 hours). Much time is spent between having tests and waiting to consult a doctor or nurse. Women can struggle with time off work or childcare for lengthy daytime appointments. There is some evidence from other countries that telephone consultations for EMA are a safe and acceptable alternative. In this study, women seeking EMA will be randomised to face-to-face (standard care) or a planned telephone consultation (in advance of the clinic visit). The investigators will determine the success of the EMA in both groups, women' satisfaction with the consultation and possible advantages and disadvantages. If telephone consultations prove to be effective and acceptable then this will change EMA provision throughout Scotland.

NCT ID: NCT04056637 Terminated - Clinical trials for Abortion in First Trimester

Choice of Modality of Follow up for Medication Abortion

Start date: September 9, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will assess the impact of providing medication abortion-seeking clients a choice for follow-up in practice. Clients presenting at or less than 63 days pregnant (based on last menstrual period) at the study site for first trimester medication abortion will be invited to participate. We hypothesize that providing clients with flexible follow-up options will improve follow-up rates. This study is not to assess efficacy or safety of follow-up methods--that has been well established in practice and research. This is to assess choice of follow-up.
