Removal of intrauterine device as part of the treatment for women with pelvic inflammatory disease

This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:

To compare the effects of early intrauterine device (IUD) removal and conventional treatment, including antibiotic treatment (any concentration, frequency, duration and route), plus any other specified intervention, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), with conventional treatment only (without early IUD removal for women with PID).

This is a protocol.
