Trial summary

Pain accompanying office hysteroscopy is the most common reason for its discontinuation. Urogenital atrophy may cause technical difficulties in passage through the cervical canal, further increasing the pain. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Estriol and Hyaluronic Acid in Cervical Preparation for Mini-hysteroscopy in Peri- and Postmenopausal Women

Pain accompanying office hysteroscopy is the most common reason for its discontinuation. Urogenital atrophy may cause technical difficulties in passage through the cervical canal, further increasing the pain. The aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of vaginal estradiol and hyaluronic acid to facilitate diagnostic hysteroscopy in peri- and postmenopausal women.

Read the detailed description

A prospective cohort tertiary-center study includes women over 45 years of age subjected to office hysteroscopy in 2021-2022. Women who consent are assigned to three study arms: i) estradiol 0.5 mg in vaginal cream twice daily for 10 days pre-procedure, ii) hyaluronic acid 5 mg in vaginal gel twice daily for 10 days pre-procedure, iii) no treatment (control). The following endpoints are compared: need for cervical dilation, incidence of severe urogenital atrophy and vaso-vagal reaction, time of cervical passage, cervical canal diameter, pain during and after the procedure in the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS).

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Intensification of pain during and after the procedure

    Intensity of pain in Numeric Rating Scale (NRS: 0-10)

    Measured: up to 6 months

  2. The need of cervical dilation

    The need for cervical dilation (yes/no) to penetrate the cervix and enter the uterine cavity

    Measured: up to 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Cervical passage time

    Cervical penetration time (minutes) from visualization of the external cervical os to reaching the uterine cavity

    Measured: up to 6 months

  2. Occurrence of a vasovagal reaction

    the occurrence of a vasovagal reaction (fall in blood pressure, bradycardia, syncope)

    Measured: up to 6 months

  3. Occurrence of severe urogenital atrophy (paleness and thinning of the vaginal epithelium, petechiae and shallow ulcers, bleeding and contact)

    Clinical evaluation of the occurrence of symptoms of urogenital atrophy

    Measured: up to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing estradiol and Hyaluronic acid in people with Uterine Polyp and Uterine Bleeding, run by Jagiellonian University at 1 site in Poland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Poland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Intensification of pain during and after the procedure (time frame: up to 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Mar 2023.
