Filter by:STUDY HYPOTHESIS: Does outpatient NovaSureTM endometrial ablation alleviate excessive menstrual bleeding and improve life quality more effectively than outpatient ThermachoiceTM endometrial ablation?
The aim of this prospective, non-interventional post-marketing surveillance study is to obtain data on safety and efficacy of Mirena in treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding (Menorrhagia) under daily-life treatment conditions.For each patient, an initial visit and one to three follow-up visits after about 3, 6 and 12 months will be documented by the treating physician on the case report form. Observations include the patient's demographic parameters (date of birth, height, weight, race and smoking habits), previous contraceptives and menorrhagia treatment, gynaecological history, baseline menstruation, result of insertion, concomitant medications and diseases as well as menorrhagia symptoms. Overall treatment success will be evaluated at the end of treatment including number of weeks until improvement and reduction of menstrual bleeding with respect to duration and severity, and patient's satisfaction.
A randomised study including 236 women referred for essential menorrhagia to five university hospitals in Finland was conducted to compare the cost-effectiveness and the quality of life issues in the treatment of menorrhagia.Participants were randomly assigned to treatment with LNG-IUS (n=119), or hysterectomy (n=117), and were monitored for ten years. The primary outcome measures were health related quality of life (HRQoL), other measures of psychosocial well-being (anxiety, depression, sexual functioning), and costs.
Many women have heavy periods and this can be associated with low blood, tiredness and inability to carry out normal activities. Approximately 10-30% of these women will have an underlying bleeding disorder. There is a drug called tranexamic acid which is commonly used and is effective in reducing menstrual flow. However, up to 1/3 of women have side effects and they are more common at higher doses. In the medical literature, there are different dosing schedules and there is one commonly recommended in Canada. Women with underlying bleeding disorders may require higher doses of this medication compared to those who do not. In this study, the investigators want to find the lowest effective dose of tranexamic acid for girls and women with heavy periods who have bleeding disorders and the investigators think this will be lower then the usual recommended dose. If the investigators' results support this, it may contribute to changing how the investigators presently prescribe this medication and may provide a better option for women with heavy periods in particular those with bleeding disorders. The investigators have just started a Women with Bleeding Disorders Clinic and hope that this project will lead to better care for the patients and more research in the future.
Mirena is used for long-term in Kazakhstan, and in our observational program we would like to study patients distribution per indications of Mirena, and also patient compliance within a year after Mirena insertion. For patients with all approved indications for Mirena use: contraception, treatment of menorrhagia and protection from endometrial hyperplasia during estrogen replacement therapy
The purposes of this study are: - To evaluate patient satisfaction for efficacy and tolerability of heavy menstrual bleeding treatment by Mirena. - To collect italian data for Mirena in clinical routine.
This is an open-label, uncontrolled, multi-centre observational study that analyses a follow-up of 1600 women with dysfunctional uterine bleeding (idiopathic menorrhagia) over a period of one year.The patients evaluated at four visits, beginning with the insertion visit and 3, 6 and 12 months after insertion.
The aim of this prospective, non-interventional post-marketing surveillance study is to obtain data on safety and efficacy of Mirena in treatment of prolonged or heavy menstrual bleeding (Menorrhagia) under daily-life treatment conditions. It is planned to conduct the study in about 10 countries with a total of 1000 patients. In several countries, a comparator group will also be documented. For each patient, an initial visit and one to three follow-up visits after about 3, 6 and 12 months will be documented by the treating physician on the case report form. Observations include the patient's demographic parameters (date of birth, height, weight, race and smoking habits), previous contraceptives and menorrhagia treatment, gynaecological history, baseline menstruation, result of insertion, concomitant medications and diseases as well as menorrhagia symptoms. Overall treatment success will be evaluated at the end of treatment including number of weeks until improvement and reduction of menstrual bleeding with respect to duration and severity, and patient's satisfaction.
The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the technical success, safety and procedure feasibility of hysteroscopic cryoablation treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids in women who do not desire further pregnancies using Galil Medical's 17-gauge 400mm Argon-based cryoablation needles
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate comparability between Contour SE™ Microspheres and Embosphere® Microspheres for achieving post UFE fibroid devascularization in women with symptomatic uterine fibroids.
