Summary

To evaluate patient-reported pain, bleeding, and device efficiency along with provider satisfaction and ease of use between intrauterine procedures employing a suction cervical stabilizer (new device, FDA approved, atraumatic) or single-tooth tenaculum (standard, traumatic). This device, cleared by the FDA in 2023, was studied in Europe and showed pain reduced by up to 73% and bleeding reduced by 78% compared to the single-tooth tenaculum for intrauterine contraceptive device insertion. The investigators seek to study this device in the United States, and trial it among all intrauterine procedures.
