Abstract

The immediate post-partum period offers a convenient time to have an intrauterine device placed because of the co-location of a non-pregnant woman and her clinician; however, this practice is associated with increased expulsion rates of up to 30%, compared with a 3% expulsion rate for interval insertions. This paper presents a device and method to improve intrauterine device delivery and retention in the immediate postpartum period. This initial feasibility study illustrates that it is possible to temporarily tether a commercially available intrauterine device within the uterus of an immediately postpartum baboon. The results indicate this device and method are technically feasible, but further studies will be needed to evaluate safety and efficacy in reducing expulsion rates.
产后初期宫内节育器输送和保留的新方法和装置:试点狒狒可行性研究
由于没有怀孕的妇女和她的临床医生同处一处,产后期间为放置宫内节育器提供了方便的时间;然而,与间隔插入的3%的排出率相比,这种做法增加了高达30%的排出率。本文介绍了一种提高产后即刻宫内节育器放置和保留的装置和方法。这项初步的可行性研究表明,在刚产后的狒狒的子宫内暂时拴上一个市售的宫内节育器是可能的。结果表明,该装置和方法在技术上是可行的,但还需要进一步的研究来评估降低排痰率的安全性和有效性。
