Methods: PubMed and five other electronic research databases were searched through 15 November 2017 for RCTs comparing lidocaine treatment vs. a control (placebo or no-intervention) to prevent pain during IUD insertion. Searched terms included ‘IUD insertion’, ‘lidocaine’ and ‘randomised controlled trial’. RCTs evaluating lidocaine treatment before IUD insertion without restriction of language, age and IUD type. Pain measured by visual pain scales at tenaculum placement, IUD insertion and immediate post-IUD insertion. Results of random effects meta-analyses were reported as mean differences (MDs) of visual pain scale (VPS) scores and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: Eleven RCTs (n = 1458 women) reporting paracervical lidocaine block or uterine mucosa lidocaine application before IUD insertion. Lidocaine produced lower VPS scores during tenaculum placement (MD −0.99, 95% CI: −1.73 to −0.26), IUD insertion (MD −1.26, 95% CI: −2.23 to −0.29) and immediate post-IUD insertion period (MD −1.25, 95% CI: −2.17 to −0.33). Conclusion: Lidocaine treatment was associated with modest reduction of pain during tenaculum placement and after IUD insertion. / Revisión por pares
