    The Ombrelle-380, a new copper intrauterine device (IUD), shows promising results in a pilot study. It demonstrated zero expulsion and zero pregnancies, indicating high effectiveness and safety.

    Area of Science:

    • Reproductive Health
    • Contraception Technology

    Background:

    • Intrauterine devices (IUDs) are a leading reversible contraceptive method.
    • There is ongoing development of novel IUDs with improved characteristics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the initial performance of the Ombrelle-380, a novel high-load copper-releasing IUD.
    • To assess the expulsion rate and clinical effectiveness of this new IUD.

    Main Methods:

    • Pilot trial involving 314 IUD insertions.
    • Data collected over 3784 woman-months of follow-up at 18 months.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved a 0.0% expulsion rate.
    • Demonstrated a 0.0% pregnancy rate, indicating high clinical effectiveness.

    Conclusions:

    • The Ombrelle-380 IUD shows potential as a highly effective contraceptive method.
    • Initial findings suggest a very low expulsion rate for this new copper IUD.
