Stopped: On the single day that the study was open, it became clear that modifications to the clip would be required. Only late in 2023 did it become clear that any continuation of the project would require a new trial.
This trial is being completed to understand how the study "Clip" device works when assisting clinicians with Nexplanon removals. The study device clips to the skin to hold the implant still and raise the tip of the implant during removal. The study device may improve the process for removing under arm implants by decreasing procedure time and improving the ease and safety of the procedure. The results from this study will help the researchers understand whether the study device has the potential to simplify the removal procedure and make this form of birth control safer for patients.
