Filter by:This project seeks to demonstrate that computer kiosks in a clinic waiting room can improve access to hormonal contraception and screening for sexually transmitted infections. The study will be a randomized controlled trial which will evaluate the use of a computer kiosk module to compare the proportion of women of reproductive age who receive a prescription for hormonal contraception when computer-assisted provision of hormonal contraception is offered (intervention) to encounters when the study clinic provides standard contraceptive care (control). Subjects will be contacted approximately 3 months (range 2-4 months) after the clinic visit to complete a follow-up phone interview. The study population will include English and Spanish-speaking women ages 18-45 who seek care at this clinic. Our hypothesis is that computer-assisted provision of hormonal contraception (intervention)will increase the proportion of women of reproductive age who receive a prescription for hormonal contraception versus standard contraceptive care(control).
The purpose of this study to assess the safety of the etonogestrel-releasing subdermal implant (Implanon) inserted during the immediate puerperium of healthy women.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness in terms of prevention of pregnancy and safety of the oral contraceptive YAZ in healthy Chinese women.
This study uses a randomized, noninferiority design to determine whether group family planning counseling is as effective as individual family planning counseling among gynecological patients with unmet need at two teaching hospitals in Ghana.
In this study, 66 HIV-infected women who desire contraception will be randomly assigned to use either an IUD or Depo Provera, and will be followed for six months. The study is intended to help investigators understand potential mechanisms by which hormonal contraception may hasten HIV disease progression.
The purpose of this study is to to determine pharmacodynamic effects of a vaginal ring delivering either 1,500 or 2,500 μg of CDB-2914 per day during 6 months of treatment on: 1. follicular function and inhibition of ovulation 2. the endometrium 3. bleeding patterns; and also to assess safety including effects on the endometrium
We hypothesize that the addition of oral naproxen or transdermal estradiol will decrease the number of days of unscheduled bleeding experienced by first-time users of the levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG-IUC) during the first 12 weeks of use compared to an oral placebo. The objective of this study is to compare the total number of days of bleeding experienced by first time users of the LNG-IUC randomized to oral naproxen or estradiol patch compared to those randomized to placebo for the first 12 weeks of use. We will enroll women initiating LNG-IUC to one of 3 groups, transdermal estrogen, oral naproxen or oral placebo. We will enroll a total of 114 women, 38 in each group. Women will keep bleeding diaries for 16 weeks which will be used to calculate the total number of bleeding or spotting days. Statistical analysis will be performed to evaluate if there is less bleeding among the treatment arms then the placebo arm.
The trial is a single-center randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo and positive controlled, parallel group clinical trial. This trial investigated whether NOMAC-E2 (Org 10486 -0 + Org 2317), a new combined hormonal contraceptive, has potential to delay cardiac repolarization. The primary measure of cardiac repolarization in this trial is the Fridericia corrected QT interval (QTcF). QTcF represents the duration of ventricular depolarization and subsequent repolarization. A delay in cardiac repolarization creates an electrophysiological environment that favors the development of cardiac arrhythmias, most clearly torsade de pointes (TdP), but possibly other ventricular tachyarrhythmias. The primary aim of this study is to investigate, if the administration of a therapeutic (2.5/1.5 mg) or supra-therapeutic (higher than required for treatment: 12.5/7.5 mg) dose of NOMAC-E2 administered over a period of 14 days will prolong the mean QTcF interval to values above the accepted threshold of regulatory concern. In addition, a single dose of moxifloxacin will be administered in order to prove that sensitivity of the applied assay is sufficient to detect the prolongation of the QTcF-interval. Secondary aims of this study are to evaluate the relation between concentrations of NOMAC (therapeutic and supra-therapeutic) after steady state has been reached in the subject's body, the time matched change in Estradiol E1 and E2 in relation to baseline and the QTcF intervals after multiple dose administration of NOMAC-E2. Finally, the safety and tolerability of different treatments are investigated. A total of 189 subjects will participate in this trial. The entire study duration is about 9 weeks with a 4-week screening period, 14-day treatment period and a follow-up period of about 3 weeks.
This is a randomized control trial of Ortho tricyclen versus Trinessa (generic equivalent) to determine if they have similar effects. Women will be randomized to receive either Ortho tricyclen or Trinessa oral contraceptives and will be asked to keep a daily dairy of any symptoms or bleeding experienced. Once a month, participants will be asked to complete a survey. The objective is to compare generic oral contraceptives (OCPs) and brand name OCPs with respect to side effect profiles including bleeding patterns, mood changes, nausea and vomiting, frequency of menstrual cramps, breast tenderness, elevation in blood pressure, stroke, blood clots and patient compliance.
The purpose of this study is to see if it is a feasible arrangement to have women receive their second and third birth control injection (with Depo-Provera) at a pharmacy compared with receiving it a Planned Parenthood Clinic. Compliance with returning for injections as well as patient satisfaction with the method, providers, and location where injection was received will be assessed and compared between the two sites. The hypothesis is that there will be no difference in return rates for injections at either the pharmacy or the clinic site.
