Bone Marrow Biopsy Procedures Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Trial of the Vidacare Powered Bone Marrow Aspiration and Core Biopsy Systems (OnControl by Vidacare) Compared to Traditional Manual Devices
This is a randomized study evaluating use of a powered bone marrow biopsy and aspiration system (OnControl by Vidacare) compared to traditional manual devices. The hypothesis is that the powered system will reduce the level of patient pain during the aspiration and core biopsy procedures and the amount of time needed to perform the procedures.

| Primary | Subject Reported Level of Pain During Procedure | Subjects were asked to rate the level of pain they experienced during the procedure for needle insertion, following penetration of the cortex. A 0 to 10 pain scale was used where 0=no pain and 10= worst possible pain. | Day 1 during the needle insertion | No |
| Secondary | Time Necessary to Perform the Bone Marrow Procedure | The time necessary to perform the procedure was measured as follows: Time started once the needle and skin came into contact and time stopped once the sample was collected and the needle was removed from the patient. | Day 1 needle insertion through needle removal | No |
