Brief Summary

Cervical cancer is the third most common genital cancer worldwide. The diagnosis of cervical cancer is performed with the cervical biopsy which is guided by the colposcopy. The colposcopy guided cervical biopsy creates pain and several methods have been reported to overcome the pain related with this procedure. Local anesthetic agent injection into the cervix has been studied and found to be effective and also, forced coughing was compared with local anesthetic injection and it is found to be more effective. In fact local injections can create the pain by itself.However no study compared the effect of forced coughing to local anesthetic spray. The study aims to evaluate the comparison of forced coughing with local anesthetic spray with respect to perceived pain during colposcopy guided biopsy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pain during procedure evaluated by the 0-10 cm scale of Visual analog scale (VAS) scoring system

    The perceived pain will be measured during the biopsy procedure. It will be evaluated by the 0-10 cm scale of VAS scoring system. The patient will be asked to rate her pain as 0 corresponds ''no pain'' and 10 to the '' worst pain''

    0-1 min

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Pain at the 30th minutes after the procedure evaluated by the 0-10 cm scale of VAS scoring system

    30. Min

Study Arms (2)

colposcopic biopsy under local anesthetic sp

PLACEBO COMPARATOR
Drug: local lidocaine spray

Patients underwent colposcopic biopsy under forced coughing

PLACEBO COMPARATOR
Other: forced coughing

Interventions

The lidocaine spray will be introduced to the cervix just before the biopsy procedure

colposcopic biopsy under local anesthetic sp

The patients will be asked to forced coughing during the biopsy procedure

Patients underwent colposcopic biopsy under forced coughing
