Filter by:The objective aim is to evaluate whether the use of 3D laparoscopy facilitates the vaginal cuff closure of the vaginal cuff during a total laparoscopic hysterectomy among novice laparoscopists (PGY 2-4, Fellow). This is a randomized single blinded controlled trial comparing the difference in 2D vs. 3D in regards to vaginal cuff closure time stratified by residents and fellows. Patients will undergo a total laparoscopic hysterectomy and will be randomized to either 2D versus 3D.
Dydrogesterone has been widely used worldwide for various gynecological and obstetric indications: - Dydrogesterone is effective in cycle regulation treatment. - Dydrogesterone is recognized as none interference to hypothalamus pituitary ovary (HPO) axis in the recommended dosage. - Dydrogesterone might have non-negative effect on glucose and lipid metabolic.
This study is a randomized clinical trial comparing the effectiveness of the levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) to combined oral contraceptives (COCs) for improving quality of life among women who report heavy menstrual bleeding.
The purpose of this study to determine effectiveness of paracervical block, lidocaine spray and only oral analgesic drugs for pain relief during endometrial biopsy.
The objective of this study is to investigate the role of transvaginal ultrasound in detecting endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer in women aged more than 35 presenting with abnormal uterine bleeding.
The purpose of this study is to determine if using a computer survey about preferences for treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is useful and if it will improve patient satisfaction with clinical care and decision making. This study is a two-part study. The first pilot tests the computerized tool to ensure it is understood by patients, then the second part is a randomized study (computerized tool versus usual care) to see if improvements are made in satisfaction and if there are reductions in decision regret.
Objective: To compare the occurrence and intensity of pelvic pain as well as patient satisfaction and quality of life after total laparoscopic and laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy. Design: Prospective randomised trial. Null hypothesis 1: There is no significant difference in occurrence and intensity of pelvic pain following TLH compared with following LSH. Null hypothesis 2: There is no significant difference in patient satisfaction and quality of life following TLH compared with following LSH.
This study assesses the effectiveness of intrauterine fibroid and polyp removal using the Interlace Medical 1st generation hysteroscopic morcellator device based on a retrospective review of medical records of women who have been treated with the device.
The investigators have developed a novel instrument for taking endometrial biopsies at no touch (vaginoscopic) hysterectomy which avoids the need to instrument the vagina with speculums and tenaculums, and also avoids the possible need for cervical dilatation. The investigators wish to study the ease of use and efficacy of the new device compared with traditional techniques of endometrial sampling at hysteroscopy.
The role of teleradiology has far reaching implications for the health of remote and underserved populations. The ability to coordinate radiographic evaluation and diagnosis from a distance has the potential to raise the standard of patient care throughout the world. Perhaps the safest and most cost effective mode of teleradiology today is telesonography. The current project attempts to determine the extent that telesonography improves the standard of care within a rural government-run primary clinic within the Dominican Republic. The work reported herein is intended to compare the use of telesonography to the current standard of sonographic examination (referral to government hospital 60km from target clinic). The study was conducted by randomly assigning 100 patients with clinical indications for sonographic examination into experimental and control groups. Following a 60-day implementation period, the following research questions will be addressed: 1) To what extent does the use of asynchronous telesonography increase the percentage of definitive diagnoses based on the total number of scans (definitive diagnoses / total number of scans)? 2) To what extent does the use of asynchronous telesonography increase the continuity of care for patients? 3) To what extent does the elapsed time between scanning and final radiological interpretation decrease with the use of asynchronous telesonography? This study will also look at the history of telemedicine / telesonography and its dissemination into the mainstream practice of medicine, explore training protocols that may be used to assist others to establish new telesonography programs in a developing nations, and discuss both advances and persistent barriers to the implementation of telesonography programs. Hypothesis: The use of a store-and-forward telesonography system in this setting will increase the speed and number of final diagnoses per scan received by the target clinic and will increase the continuity of care by increasing the number and speed of follow-up appointments to the target clinic.
