Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Objective: The investigators sought to investigate the analgesic efficiency of lidocaine spray, paracervical block (PCB) with lidocaine and PCB with lidocaine plus lidocaine spray combination in patients undergoing first-trimester surgical abortion.

Methods: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted on 108 women with the request of pregnancy termination.The subjects were randomly assigned into four groups: PCB (n=27), lidocaine spray (n=27), PCB plus lidocaine spray (n=27) and placebo(n=27).Intraoperative and postoperative pain scores were measured with a standard Visual Analog Scale (VAS).
