简要总结
To compare the effectiveness of vaginal dinoprostone with placebo in minimizing the pain experienced by primarily infertile patients during diagnostic office hysteroscopy and to assess the ease of insertion of hysteroscope as reported by the hysteroscopist.
详细描述
hysteroscopy is commonly used in the diagnosis and treatment of intrauterine lesions such as polyps, fibroids, septa, and adhesions, and in the presence of abnormal bleeding and during the removal of an intrauterine device or foreign body. Cervical ripening is made possible by the use of medication through different routes. The most commonly used agent is misoprostol, a synthetic prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) analog that is frequently administered in off-label use in obstetrics and gynecology for medical abortion, labor induction, endometrial biopsy, dilatation and curettage, intrauterine device insertion, myomectomy, postpartum haemorrhage, and cervical ripening. In contrast, dinoprostone, a natural PGE2, is mostly used in obstetrics for cervical ripening and the stimulation of uterine contractions to induce labor.
