Trial Outcomes

Moderate Pain at Postoperation Follow-up Assessment

"During the Postoperative Day 1 phone call, participants self reported how much they experienced moderate pain in the last 24 hours where 10 = none of the time and 0 = all of the time. Moderate pain was defined according to the perception of each participant." (NCT02944656)
Timeframe: Postoperative Day 1

Nausea or Vomiting at Postoperation Follow-up Assessment

During the Postoperative Day 1 phone call, participants self reported how much they experienced nausea or vomiting in the last 24 hours where 10 = none of the time and 0 = all of the time. Nausea and vomiting were self-reported together as a single outcome. (NCT02944656)
Timeframe: Postoperative Day 1

Number of Participants Using Pain Medication

The number of participants reporting filling and using the prescription for ibuprofen postoperatively. During the follow-up phone call on the day after the procedure, participants were asked whether or not they filled the pain medication prescription and if they took any of the medication. (NCT02944656)
Timeframe: Postoperative Day 1

Severe Pain at Postoperation Follow-up Assessment

"During the Postoperative Day 1 phone call, participants self reported how much they experienced severe pain in the last 24 hours where 10 = none of the time and 0 = all of the time. Severe pain was defined according to the perception of each participant." (NCT02944656)

Anxiety Levels

"Participants reported how much anxiety they were currently experiencing on a 100-point scale where No Anxiety is scored as 0 and Extremely Anxious is scored as 100. Anxiety is reported for the time periods of immediately prior to the procedure, 10 minutes after the procedure, and 30 minutes after the procedure." (NCT02944656)

Pain at Time of Uterine Evacuation

"The primary outcome measure is a pain score using a 100-mm visual analog scale (VAS) measured intraoperatively at time of evacuation. No pain is scored as 0 and worst pain imaginable is scored as 100." (NCT02944656)

Perioperative Nausea

"Nausea level was measured using a 100-mm visual analog scale (VAS) to log the change in nausea levels between the study arms. No nausea is reported as 0 while worst nausea I have ever felt is reported at 100. Nausea was reported immediately prior to the procedure, 10 minutes following the procedure, and 30 minutes following the procedure." (NCT02944656)

Perioperative Pain Level

"Pain level at a variety of time points will be measured using a 100-mm visual analog scale (VAS) to log the change in pain levels between the study arms. No pain is scored as 0 and worst pain imaginable is scored as 100. Pain will be assessed immediately prior to the procedure, at completion of the procedure (removal of the speculum), 10 minutes following the procedure, and 30 minutes following the procedure (at discharge)."
