About this study

Official title: OPIOID Study: Opioid Use and Pain After Insertion of Osmotic Dilators

Comparison of pain levels and pain medications utilized following insertion of two different types of osmotic dilators.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized controlled trial to assess and compare pain levels and pain medication needs following placement of Laminaria versus Dilapan-S for cervical preparation prior to second-trimester dilation and evacuation (D\&E) procedures. Pain levels and medication usage will also be assessed following the D\&E procedure itself, up to 7 days after the procedure.

Being tested
Dilapan-S, Laminaria

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Maximum pain above baseline following Laminaria versus Dilapan-S placement

    Timed surveys measuring pain on Numeric Rating Scale (0-10), administered approximately 24 hours after dilator placement

    Measured: First 24 hours after dilator placement

  2. Time of maximum pain above baseline following Laminaria versus Dilapan-S placement

    Timing of maximum Numeric Rating Scale (0-10) pain difference among measurements approximately 24 hours after dilator placement

    Measured: First 24 hours after dilator placement

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Pain medication use after Laminaria versus Dilapan-S placement

    Timed surveys of pain medication usage at 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, and approximately 24 hours after dilator placement

    Measured: First 24 hours after dilator placement

  2. Maximum pain increase over baseline following D&E procedure

    Timed surveys measuring pain on Numeric Rating Scale (0-10), administered at 1 hour, 4 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, and 1 week after D\&E procedure

    Measured: First week after D&E

  3. Pain medication use after D&E

    Timed surveys of pain medication usage, administered at 4 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, and 1 week after D\&E procedure

    Measured: First week after D&E

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?

Maximum pain above baseline following Laminaria versus Dilapan-S placement (time frame: First 24 hours after dilator placement). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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.
