Protocol summary

Study aim
Determining the effectiveness and side effects of intrauterine insemination catheter with mandrel, a product of Slamtyar Hakim engineering company, in infertile couples
Design
A randomized Controlled Trial, with parallel groups, 60 patients , and without blinding. The patients randomly assigned to two groups using a random permutation block design
Settings and conduct
This is a concurrent parallel randomized controlled trial. This study will be performed in Shahid Beheshti Hospital (Isfahan) and without blinding. A total of 60 infertile couples will included in the study and randomly assigned into 2 groups of intervention and control. After intrauterine insemination, the first pregnancy test will be done about 2 weeks later to determine the status of chemical pregnancy. One month later, with an ultrasound and detection of fetal heartbeat, clinical pregnancy will be confirmed.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Having 2 to 3 follicles of suitable size, open tubes, acceptable sperm test for intrauterine insemination Exclusion criteria: Age over 42 years, bilateral tubular obstruction, couples with sperm concentration less than ten million spermatozoa per millilitre
Intervention groups
Control group: 30 patients, a catheter without mandrel, produced by Salamatyar Hakim engineering Company, will be used for intrauterine insemination of sperm. Intervention group: 30 patients, a catheter with mandrel, produced by Salamatyar Hakim engineering Company, will be used for intrauterine insemination of sperm.
Main outcome variables
Primary outcomes: Problem with catheter insertion, Need to Tenaculum, Need for cervical dilatation Secondary outcomes: Chemical pregnancy rate, Clinical pregnancy rate

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
The method of assigning samples to groups is in the form of two-treatment permutation block design with quadruple blocks. Thus, the letter A is considered for the masstec catheter group with mandrel and the letter B for the catheter group without mandrel. Then we write all the permutation compounds of the letters A, A, B, B, which are 6 different compounds, then we choose a number from the digits 1 to 6. For example, if the number 2 is selected, it means that the first person in the intervention group, the next two people in the control group and the fourth person in the intervention group. This operation continues until the sample size reaches the quorum.
