Comparative safety and efficacy of a dedicated postpartum IUD inserter vs forceps for immediate postpartum IUD insertion: A randomized trial

Contraception May 15, 2018

Blumentha PD, et al. - Researchers sought to compare postpartum IUD (PPIUD) insertion using a newly developed dedicated PPIUD inserter (inserter) to insertion with modified Kelly placental forceps (forceps). They note performing technique of Cu-T380A PPIUD insertion easy with the inserter, which may make immediate PPIUD insertions more convenient for patients and providers. The inserter's increased partial expulsions and self-removals seemed to be correlated with the longer string. It seems that the technique, involving less IUD manipulation and reduced dependence on extra instruments could combine to make PPIUD a more popular option.
