View clinical trials related to Abnormal Uterine Bleeding.
Filter by:Abnormal Uterine Bleeding (AUB) is a common health problem that affects approximately 30% of women of reproductive age and can have several underlying causes. It significantly affects quality of life, use of medical resources and health costs. Endometrial ablation is a commonly used minimally invasive surgical procedure for the treatment of AUB that destroys endometrial tissue. This procedure is an alternative treatment to hysterectomy because it is less invasive and has a shorter recovery period. Several ablation techniques are available to remove endometrial tissue, including bipolar radiofrequency (NovaSure treatment). While patient satisfaction with this form of endometrial ablation for the treatment of AUB is high, approximately 10-20% of women undergoing endometrial ablation require additional invasive surgery, primarily because of persistent blood loss or pain. There is therefore a need to identify and evaluate factors that can improve women's outcomes, or that can be building blocks for prognostic models that can be used to influence clinical practice. In this 10-year single-center retrospective cohort study, we aim to apply data mining and machine learning techniques to uncover hidden relationships/patterns between variables, and identify factors and patients at increased risk for Novasure treatment failure. With multiple time variables, this is not possible with a simple statistical analysis. Discovering these patterns and risk factors could help improve medical care, patient counseling and patient satisfaction.
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of an implantable etonogestrel device in reducing hysterectomy rate in patients with a failed endometrial ablation.
1. to determine the role of hysteroscopy and guided biopsy to differentiate between submucosal fibroids and adenomyosis confirmed by histopathological examination 2. to evaluate the efficacy of norethisterone in the treatment of symptomatic adenomyosis and leiomyoma
Isthmocele is one complications of repeat cesarean sections which is considered as a pocket .that accumulate menstrual blood causing post- menstrual spotting Hysteroscopic resection of the edges of the isthmocele is considered the best treatment option available up to date. Aim of the work: Asses the effectiveness of three steps method resection using hysteroscopy of an isthmocele in patients complained of post -menstrual bleeding with confirmed presence of isthmocele. .
Iron deficiency anemia affects over half of girls and young women with heavy periods and is the most common cause of anemia worldwide. Most girls with heavy periods who also have iron deficiency anemia are prescribed iron to take by mouth every day by their doctor. There are some studies showing that taking iron every other day may actually help the iron be absorbed into the bloodstream better. This study is trying to compare how taking iron every other day compares to taking iron daily for treatment of anemia. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn which of the two methods of care will be the best way for girls and young women with iron deficiency anemia to take iron supplementation.
Telephone surveys of female patients using liposomally-bound iron and traditional iron sulphate preparations for the management of iron deficiency anemia to determine gastrointestinal tolerability.
There is currently limited information regarding the role of blood management in the benign gynecologic population and specifically, in patients who are scheduled to undergo surgery for fibroids and/or abnormal uterine bleeding. A thorough search through PubMed and clinicaltrials.gov did not reveal any studies on this issue. In 2019 at CCF only 2% of gyn patients at Main Campus were referred to blood management, but 12.6% of the main campus gyn population had a Hb of <10.0 g/dL. The overall goal of this study is to evaluate the role of preoperative blood management in optimizing surgical outcomes by reducing the co-morbidities associated with postoperative blood transfusion.
The purpose of the study is to investigate differences in perioperative and postoperative outcomes between the abdominal (AM) versus vaginal (VM) routes of contained morcellation in participants undergoing laparoscopic total hysterectomies in a randomized controlled trial.
Pre-pivotal, randomized study to assess the safety and efficacy of the IUB SEAD™ device in women suffering from abnormal uterine bleeding.
This is a Double-blinded randomized placebo-controlled trial based at Eastern Virginia Medical School. Subjects who are identified in clinic having menorrhagia or abnormal Uterine bleeding (AUB) due to uterine fibroids and meet inclusion criteria based on the ultrasound (US) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), aged 18-45 undergoing laparoscopic or Robotic assisted myomectomies. A total of 50 women in each arm of the study with symptomatic fibroids. Patients will be randomized to receive a single IV bolus injection of TXA 30mg/kg in 50ml of normal saline (intervention group) versus an IV bolus injection of normal saline of equivalent volume (placebo group) 15 minutes prior to initial surgical incision.
