Geriatric Functional Assessment System: A Clinician's Perspective

The goal of this interview is to gather a clinician's perspective on the feasibility and potential integration of a new Geriatric Functional Assessment System (GFAS) into their clinical practice.

Ketorolac for IUD Pain Control

Are you planning on having an IUD placed? If you are already planning to get an IUD, this study gives the chance to receive extra pain medication during insertion. Everyone will receive standard pain medication, and 2/3 of volunteers will receive extra. We are looking to see if giving ketorolac pills 1-hour vs 2-hours before an IUD decreases pain levels. We would need 3 hours of in-person clinic time from volunteers. Compensation provided.
