Assessment of Implanon™ insertion and removal
چکیده انگلیسی

ObjectiveThis report describes the proper technique and the time required for insertion and removal of Implanon™.MethodsImplanon™ was inserted into 330 female volunteers for an assessment of efficacy, safety and tolerability over a 2-year period. Implanon™ was inserted subdermally using a unique, specially designed, preloaded, disposable applicator, and removal was accomplished either by the “pop-out” method or by grasping the implant with a small hemostat and removing it through a small incision.ResultsThe average length of time required for insertion was 0.5 min. The average length of time required for removal was 3.6 min. There were no reported pregnancies when Implanon™ was in situ.ConclusionImplanon™ is a single-rod subdermal contraceptive that is usually easily inserted and removed. Insertion and removal represent brief office procedures associated with a low rate of complications. Following proper insertion and removal procedures will minimize the possibility of complications.
