A study was undertaken to look at the clinical behavior of the Dalkon Shield, the Lippes Loop D and the TCu-200 inserted by physicians and midwives.

No differences were observed between insertions performed by physicians and those performed by midwives; this emphasizes the efficiency of using paramedical personnel in the field of intrauterine contraception.
