Trial Outcomes

Anxiety VAS Score

Self-assessed maximum anxiety reported using a 0-100 mm visual analog scale, where 100 signifies maximum anxiety. (NCT03900728)
Timeframe: Auriculotherapy is applied on the day of mifepristone. Participants take misoprostol 1-3 days later. Anxiety scores are recorded following misoprostol at 8pm x 4 days (selecting the highest of 4 for analysis).

Auriculotherapy With Needles (Acupuncture) + Usual Care45
Auriculotherapy With Gold Beads (Acupressure) + Usual Care10
Placebo Group + Usual Care30

Pain VAS Score

Self-assessed maximum pain reported using a 0-100 mm visual analog scale (VAS), where 100 signifies maximum pain. (NCT03900728)
Timeframe: Auriculotherapy is applied on the day of mifepristone. Participants take misoprostol 1-3 days later. Pain scores are recorded following misoprostol at 8pm x 4 days (selecting the highest of the 4 for analysis).

Anxiety Visual Analog Scale Score

Self-assessed maximum anxiety reported using a 0-100 mm visual analog scale, where 100 signifies maximum anxiety. To measure anxiety during aspiration abortion. (NCT03896022)
Timeframe: Immediately following the aspiration abortion procedure (approximately 10 minutes)

Pain Visual Analog Scale Score (Beads vs Placebo)

Self-assessed maximum pain reported using a 0-100mm visual analog scale, where 100 signifies maximum pain. To measure pain experienced during aspiration abortion. (NCT03896022)

Change in Visual Analog Scale for Pain (VAS Pain) Score - Placebo Versus Routine Care

Measure effectiveness of placebo as an adjunct to ibuprofen and paracervical block for pain control during uterine aspiration by comparing the maximum pain score; as measured by VAS between women randomized to receive placebo adhesives and routine care controls - using a 100 mm visual analog scale (VAS-P) (anchors: 0 mm = no pain, 100 mm = worst pain in my life). (NCT03391986)
Timeframe: prior to the procedure (baseline), at the completion of the procedure (approximately 10 minutes later)

Interventionscore on a scale (Mean)
Placebo Adhesives70.0
Routine Care71.0

Percentage of Patients Rated Good or Very Good on Satisfaction Survey in Overall Care - Acupuncture Versus Routine Care

Using a satisfaction survey (investigator-developed, 6 questions, each question is graded on a scale of 1-5, 1 being very poor and 5 being very good) to measure effectiveness of auricular acupuncture for improving satisfaction. (NCT03391986)
Timeframe: at the completion of the procedure (approximately 5-10 minutes)

Visual Analog Scale for Pain (VAS Pain) Score - Acupuncture Versus Routine Care

Measure effectiveness of auricular acupuncture as an adjunct to ibuprofen and paracervical block for pain control during first trimester uterine aspiration by comparing the maximum pain score; as measured by VAS between women randomized to receive auricular acupuncture and routine care controls - using a 100 mm visual analog scale (VAS-P) (anchors: 0 mm = no pain, 100 mm = worst pain in my life). The VAS has no sub-scales. (NCT03391986)
Timeframe: at the completion of the procedure (approximately 10 minutes later)
