This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.
Early pregnancy loss happens when a pregnancy that is not developing properly is found on an ultrasound before 12 weeks and 6 days. This type of loss occurs in about 10% of pregnancies. There are three main ways to treat this: waiting for it to pass naturally, using medication, or having surgery. Surgery is the most effective, working 99% of the time, compared to waiting (80% effective in 8 weeks) and medication (71-84% effective). Currently, surgery involves dilation of the cervix and curettage (removal of pregnancy tissue) with suction provided either from a manual hand-held pump or a machine. For the purposes of this study, a manual vacuum aspirator (or hand-held pump) will be used with ultrasound guidance. There is also another method called hysteroscopic resection, where the doctor uses a special camera to directly see and remove any pregnancy tissue from your uterus. Patients often want the quickest way to resolve the pregnancy loss, and physicians are unsure which surgical method is the best. It's also unclear if one type of surgery causes less scar tissue inside the uterus, affects the ability to test the tissue for genetic issues, or impacts how soon a patient can start fertility treatments again. This study aims to find out if hysteroscopic resection provides faster resolution and creates less scar tissue compared to the manual vacuum aspiration.
A Randomized Control Trial Investigating Hysteroscopic Resection Versus Manual Vacuum Aspiration for Early Pregnancy
Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.
