Hysteroscopy & Abnormal Uterine Bleeding

T Matsaseng

SASOG 2014

DIAGNOSTIC ROLE

No No No!!!

•Prospective cohort study

•89 premenopausal women

Results

Soguktas S et al. EJOG 2012; 161: 66-70

Conclusion

• Hysteroscopy – superior to SIS

• Treat immediately

• Done under GA

Soguktas S et al. EJOG 2012; 161: 66-70

ADVANTAGES

• No need for anaesthesia, cervical dilatation, hospitalization

• Accurate visual assessment: canal & cavity

• Tolerable/Interactive

• Treat

• 2.5% (loop & roller)

• 3.5% (loop alone)

• Electrocautery/Tamponade

Perforation

• 0.8% risk

• Dilatation

• Size, site & method

• Estimate (sound)

• Visualize & Combined

• Conservative/ Laparoscopy


Fluid overload

• Saline/Mannitol

• Abandon (time & 2L deficit)

• Monitoring fluid balance

• Diuretics

• Pressures <100mmgH


Lowest pressures for distention Saline safer than electrolyte free media Consider GnRHa CO2 for diagnostic procedures Input/Output Time limits (<2hrs) Automated electronic devices
