Study Summary
Primary Objective: To assess whether usual care plus auricular acupressure with beads reduces subject-reported maximum pain during first trimester vacuum aspiration compared to usual care plus placebo. Secondary Objective: To assess whether usual care plus auricular acupuncture with Pyonex™ needles reduces subject-reported maximum pain during first trimester vacuum aspiration as compared to usual care plus placebo. This assessment will replicate the previous trial and strengthen the evidence that auricular acupuncture is beneficial for aspiration abortion pain Exploratory Objective: To assess whether usual care plus either auricular acupressure with beads or auricular acupuncture with Pyonex™ needles reduces subject-reported anxiety scores during first trimester vacuum aspiration as compared to women receiving usual care plus placebo.
