Study Summary
The study will be a prospective randomized trial involving human subjects. The study population will consist of all infertility patients presenting to the Carolinas Medical Center Women's Institute who will require injectable use. Exclusion criteria: Any patient with prior history of IVF injectable use will be excluded from the study. Independent Variables: The independent variable is the random assignment of each participant to receive either web-based or one on one teaching. Outcome Variables: The primary outcome variable is the level of knowledge after the intervention. Secondary outcome variables include level of satisfaction with education, preference of educational method, and time required to teach. Confounding Variables: Potentially confounding variables include age, race, and prior experience with web-based teaching.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT02420964
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT02420964 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 80 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Wake Forest University Health Sciences, which has 1,061 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Infertility appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which video instruction is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT02420964 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include North Carolina. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
