Lidocaine in a cervical dilator to reduce removal pain
Part of Pain, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether putting lidocaine (a numbing medicine) into a disposable cervical dilator can reduce pain during uterine device removal done with local anesthesia. If you’re eligible, your experience of pain is measured so researchers can compare comfort between study procedures.
