Filter by: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.
Abnormal uterine bleeding is common in Thai women. Fractional curettage is an diagnostic procedure of this condition. Traditionally, fractional curettage is performed under local anesthesia such as paracervical nerve block or intravenous meperidine. Cervical dilatation using "metal cervical dilator" is a common method prior to perform fractional curettage. However, complication from this procedure can be occurred frequently, for example, uterine perforation, false tract formation and laceration of cervix. Misoprostol is a prostaglandin E1 analogue which is commonly used in obstetrics and gynecology. Misoprostol transforms cervical component causing cervical ripening. This is very helpful for transcervical procedure because cervical dilatation is usually omitted. It can be prescribed in many route and sublingual route is the most effectiveness. Moreover, WHO supports the use of misoprostol in obstetrics and gynecology practice. The hypothesis of this study is that "Misoprostol 200 micrograms sublingually is effective for cervical ripening before performing fractional curettage in patients with abnormal uterine bleeding" Double blind randomised controlled trial was performed using 26 patients in each group.
Abnormal uterine bleeding is common in Thai women. Traditionally, because of a larger number of patients, the diagnosis of its cause is performed via fractional curettage under local anesthesia such as paracervical nerve block or intravenous meperidine. Pain is one of a common adverse effect of this procedure and this topic should be concerned by a responsible doctor. NSAIDs, Diclofenac Potassium in this study, is known as a drug which is effective for pain control and is as effective as coxib in acute pain management. Because of its cost, easy accessible and easy administration, Diclofenac Potassium was selected to be used in this study. Its onset of action is about 1 hour and only one dose of this drug do not cause any serious side effects. The hypothesis of this study is that "Diclofenac Potassium has an additional effectiveness for acute pain control in patients undergoing fractional curettage under paracervical nerve block due to abnormal uterine bleeding" Double blind randomised controlled trial was performed in this study with 45 patients included in each group.
Treatment with Estradiol is non-inferior to treatment with Tranexamic acid in reducing the amount and duration of menstrual blood loss in women with cyclic heavy menstrual bleeding
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.
The occurrence of persistent vaginal bleeding following laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy (LSH) is reported in the wide range of 0 % - 25 %. Experienced gynaecologists have claimed that removal of any remaining endometrium in a reverse cone pattern at the time of the hysterectomy reduces the occurrence of persistent vaginal bleeding to a minimum. The effect of this particular technique has not been reported. Ullevaal University Hospital have developed an unipolar electrode for this study (Lapcone electrode, mod. UUS, L: 25cm, 6x10, Art. No. REM-270, Ross Electro Medical Ltd, Unit K1&K2, Quarry Fields Estate, Mere, Wiltshire BA12 6LA, London, UK). The electrode is CE approved. Outcome: 1.Occurrence of vaginal bleeding 12 months after the procedure. 2. Patient satisfaction 12 months after the procedure (10-point analogue scale). Design: Prospective randomised trial. Methods; The study participants are randomised to laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy performed by perioperative electrocoagulation from the upper cervical canal (n=70) or performed by excision of the endocervix in a reverse cone pattern followed by electrocoagulation of the upper cervical canal (n =70).
The purpose of study is to compare the treatment success in the study groups.
