About this study

Official title: Immediate Postpartum Insertion of Kyleena vs Mirena Contraceptive Intrauterine Devices

In this randomized trial, investigators intend to determine the expulsion and discontinuation rate of immediate postpartum intrauterine devices in the patient population of the University of Oklahoma Women's Healthcare Specialists Clinic (OUWHSC).

Read the detailed description

Between 40-57% of women report having unprotected intercourse prior to the 6 week postpartum visit. Immediate postpartum long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) is extremely important in preventing short-interval and unintended pregnancies. The postpartum period is an excellent time for intrauterine device (IUD) or implant insertion as women are often highly motivated to prevent unwanted pregnancies at this time. Per the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG), expulsion rates for immediate postpartum IUD insertion are higher than for interval or post-abortion insertion. Despite the higher expulsion rate of immediate postpartum IUD placement over interval placement, cost-benefit analysis data strongly suggest the superiority of immediate placement in reduction of unintended pregnancy, especially for women at greatest risk of not attending the postpartum follow-up visit. This study will randomly allocate participants one to one to the Kyleena or the Mirena IUD group, and participants will be blinded to allocation of groups. Participants will follow up at routine postpartum visit within 4 weeks of delivery, and a second follow up will be performed at 10 weeks. Ultimately, this study will attempt to provide more detailed information on the difference of rates of expulsion and discontinuation of the different-sized Mirena and Kyleena intrauterine devices.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Kyleena Intrauterine System and Mirena Intrauterine System in people with Contraception, run by University of Oklahoma at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Expulsion of intrauterine contraception (time frame: within 10 weeks of placement). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Apr 2023.
