About this study

Background: Small-diameter operative hysteroscopes may allow to perform operative hysteroscopy without general anesthesia in selected patients. One of these instruments is the tissue removal device (TRD), which resects and removes intrauterine pathology such as endometrial polyps and retained products of conception (RPOC) with a diameter of ¬6 mm.

Objective: To assess the success rate and intraoperative pain of patients undergoing operative hysteroscopy without anesthesia with the TRD (TruClear Elite Mini-Hysteroscope) for removal of endometrial polyps or RPOC.

Methods: Prospective observational study. Participation in the study was offered to patients diagnosed with uterine polyps or RPOC on office diagnostic hysteroscopy. The patients filled out a digital questionnaire before and after the operation. A successful procedure was defined as complete hysteroscopic removal of the uterine pathology using the TruClear system. Oral 400 mcg misoprostol 12 hours before the procedure was prescribed for cervical ripening.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Procedure completed successfully

    Was the procedure completed - yes/no

    Measured: Immediately after procedure

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Prevalence of VAS (pain scale) > 5 during procedure

    VAS (Visual analogue scale 0-10, most painful 10) grading by the patient

    Measured: Immediately after procedure

  2. Prevalence of VAS (pain scale) > 5, five minutes after procedure

    VAS (Visual analogue scale 0-10, most painful 10) grading by the patient

    Measured: 5 minutes after procedure

  3. Acceptable procedure by the patient

    Was the procedure acceptable by the patient (1-4 when 1 is most acceptable)

    Measured: 5 minutes after procedure

  4. Recommended procedure by the patient

    Would the patient recommend her acquittance the procedure in this outline (1-5, most recommended 5) aquitance (1-5)

    Measured: 5 minutes after procedure
