Filter by:The objective of this pilot study is to test that hypothesis that ultrasound guided IUD placement by family medicine residents improves patient pain scores, procedure completion time, and procedure complication rates. The secondary objective is to test the hypothesis that ultrasound guided IUD placement improves resident confidence in performing the procedure. A prospective, randomized controlled pilot study will be conducted in the Department of Academic Family Medicine at the University of Saskatchewan. All women undergoing IUD placement (hormonal or non-hormonal) at West Winds Primary Care Center from Mar 1, 2020- Mar 1, 2021 will be invited to participate. Informed consent will be obtained from each patient and the resident inserting the IUD prior to initiating study procedures. The control group will comprise 20 women undergoing non-ultrasound guided IUD placement. The experimental group will comprise 20 women undergoing transabdominal ultrasound guided IUD placement. Patient pain scores and resident confidence scores will be tabulated using likert scales and compared between control and experimental groups using independent sample t-tests. Procedure completion time (minutes) will be compared between groups using t-tests. Procedure complications rates will be categorized as: a) inability to penetrate the cervix, b) improper location, c) inability to release the IUD from the insertion device, d) perforation, e) vasovagal reactions, and f) post-procedure infection; outcomes will be compared between groups using Chi-square analyses.
Pain during IUD insertion is substantially psychologic in origin, responds extremely well to non-pharmacologic interventions. Considering the fact that acupuncture is a modality exerting both psychologic and physiologic effects, the authors presume that acupuncture administration before IUD insertion may have positive effects on pain control. From this point of view, the aim of this study to investigate the effects of LI4 acupuncture administered shortly before IUD insertion on pain perception and discomfort of the women.
To compare the effect of vaginal dinoprostone versus vaginal misoprostol administered before the copper intrauterine device(IUD) insertion in reducing IUD inertion pain and the difficulty in inserting the IUD in nulliparous women.
The primary aim of our study is to evaluate the effect of intracervical anesthesia on pain scores immediately following levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) insertion in nulligravida women.
The purpose of the study is to investigate whether the speed of tenaculum placement affects perceived patient pain during office transcervical procedures.
