OBJECTIVE To compare the effectiveness of paracervical block, intrauterine lidocaine and oral etodolac in decreasing the pain caused by pipelle endometrial sampling. A secondary goal of this study was to determine the adverse effects and compare possible effects of these methods on pulse and blood pressure. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study was performed between April 2006 and October 2006 in th...

BACKGROUND Endometrial assessment by means of biopsy or sampling of endometrial cells is a minimally invasive alternative for dilatation and curettage (D&C) or hysteroscopy. The use of this technique is believed to reduce the cost of the diagnostic work-up for abnormal uterine bleeding without reducing accuracy. Because the authors were not aware of any systematic review of this test, they perf...

BACKGROUND To evaluate and compare the efficacy of vaginal misoprostol and a rectal nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) on pain relief during Pipelle endometrial biopsies in a placebo-controlled randomized study. METHODS One hundred and fifty-one women who had an indication for a Pipelle endometrial biopsy were randomized into three groups as follows: group 1, vaginal misoprostol; gro...

BACKGROUND Elevated serum progesterone levels at the end of the follicular phase in controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) leads to a poorer ongoing pregnancy rate in IVF cycles due to reduced endometrial receptivity. The objective of this study was to use microarray technology to compare endometrial gene expression profiles at the window of implantation according to the levels of circulating pro...

objective: intravascular catheter-associated infection has been increasing hospitalization in post-surgery patients mainly due to microbial colonization of the catheter surface and formation of a superficial biofilm layer. the present study is aimed in developing an effective antibacterial device which can prevent colonization of organisms by modification of catheter. methods: in the present st...

Introduction: Abnormal uterine bleeding is one of the commonest issues in perimenopausal age group. The proportion 9-30% reproductive This extent rises to 70% and postmenopausal women’s. Irregular dying (AUB) warrants an intensive assessment females subsequently it’s vital perform it a cost-effective way with available resources. Objective: To compare efficacy Hysteroscopic guided biopsy endome...

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of pipelle endometrial sampling (PES) in diagnosing pathologies patients with asymptomatic thick endometrium compared to fractional curettage (FC). Methods: A prospective, comparative, observational study was conducted, involving 100 postmenopausal women thickened endometrium. Demographic characteristics, clinical features, and transvaginal ultrasound measure...
