About this study

Official title: Same-day Cervical Preparation With Dilapan-S™ Plus Buccal Misoprostol Compared to Overnight Dilapan-S™ Before Dilation and Evacuation at 16 to 20 Weeks' Gestation: A Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose of this randomized trial is to compare same-day cervical preparation using Dilapan-S™ plus buccal misoprostol to overnight cervical preparation using Dilapan-S™ before D\&E at 16.0 to 20.0 weeks.

Primary objective: To compare D\&E operative time. We hypothesize that same-day Dilapan-S™ plus buccal misoprostol is non-inferior to overnight Dilapan-S™ with respect to operative time.

Secondary objectives: To compare treatment groups for the following: Pre-operative cervical dilation; need for mechanical dilation and ease of dilation if required; ability to complete D\&E without further cervical preparation; ease of D\&E; complications; pain; side effects; patient and provider satisfaction.

Being tested
Same-Day Dilapan-S, Overnight Dilapan-S

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Same-Day Dilapan-SDevice

    Dilapan-S cervical dilators placed the same day as the D\&E procedure

  • Overnight Dilapan-SDevice

    Dilapan-S cervical dilators placed the day prior to D\&E procedure
