Filter by:The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of dexamethasone on inflammatory reactions after uterine artery embolization. The secondary purpose of this study it to investigate the effects of dexamethasone on postembolization syndrome (severe pain, nasea and vomiting).
The aim of study is to compare triple tourniquet vs. single tourniquet to reduce blood loss at open myomectomy.
To compare postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and perioperative outcomes of gynecologic patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery after scheduled administration of intravenous Ramosetron during hospital stays. - Randomized controlled arm : Placebo versus Ramosetron injection - Administration schedule : immediate postoperative status, 12 hrs after surgery, 36hrs after surgery
Study is intended to evaluate the one-year safety and clinical status of patients treated for symptomatic uterine fibroids with the VizAblate Intrauterine-ultrasound guided radio frequency (RF) ablation system. Particular attention will be directed to recording safety outcomes including incidence of uterine cavity synechiae. In addition, information on quality of life will be collected. Overall study duration (first patient enrolled through last patient exit) will be comprised of approximately 12 months of patient enrollment up to 1 month for scheduling of treatment, and 12 months of follow-up, for a total duration of up to 25 months. Study duration for an individual patient, once enrolled, will be approximately 1 month for baseline observations and treatment scheduling, and 12 months for follow up after treatment for a total duration of approximately 13 months.
To improve the clinical care of women with pelvic pain and abnormal uterine bleeding due to benign uterine conditions including leiomyomas (uterine fibroids) and adenomyosis by evaluating the accuracy of radiology diagnostic exams (MRI(magnetic resonance imaging), ultrasound and ultrasound with elastography).
The aim of this study is to test our hypothesis that the use of unidirectional knotless barbed suture in single-port laparoscopic myomectomy could facilitate the suture of uterine wall defect after myoma enucleation as multi-port laparoscopic myomectomy did.
Premenopausal Women ages 18-42 will undergo a laparoscopic myomectomy. Prior to the myomectomy, adhesions will be assessed using a modified AFS scoring technique. All investigators will provide usual and customary care to research subjects during the first look laparoscopy. This includes the use of all standard practice anti-adhesive agents and heparinized irrigation fluids.V-Loc 180 suture will be utilized in all patients. All patients will then be evaluated by means of a second look laparoscopy (SLL) 6-12 weeks after the initial surgery and reevaluated via modified American Fertility Society scoring techniques. An independent reviewer will also score adhesions utilize a video recording made from the second look laparoscopic surgery. Patients will be contacted both 1 and 4 weeks post -op and assessed for complications. It is the expectation that patients will show no greater post-operative adhesion formation and a <1% complication rate. Time and ease of suturing will also be evaluated. It is expected that the V-Loc suturing technique will show significantly reduced suturing time, be easier to use, and will be associated with minimal adhesions.
The Mirabilis High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) Treatment System delivers therapeutic focused ultrasound energy to the uterus under integrated ultrasound imaging guidance to offer non-invasive treatment for uterine fibroids. The purpose of this clinical study is to assess the initial safety and performance of the Mirabilis HIFU Treatment System for transabdominal treatment of uterine fibroids in eligible women who are scheduled to undergo hysterectomy following treatment with the device or who are seeking relief from fibroid-related symptoms.
Increase of intracerebral pressure (ICP) during laparoscopic surgery has known to be associated with positional changes. Optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) has correlation with ICP and ultrasonographic measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) is known to be a noninvasive and rapidly applicable technique for evaluating ICP. The aim of this study is to investigate the change of ONSD according to the positional change during laparoscopic surgery.
The purpose of this study is to search for the hereditary (genetic) causes of uterine fibroids. Some women with uterine fibroids may have one or more genes that make them more likely to develop uterine fibroids. We are trying to identify these genes to better understand how and why uterine fibroids develop and to design better treatment options for women with uterine fibroids. This information may also help us to understand and treat other problems that may be caused by these genes.
