Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1 Year Pregnancy Rate1 year

Pregnancy rate is defined as the cumulative percentage of pregnancies occuring within the time frame. The primary endpoint for this study is the pregnancy prevention rate after one year of reliance on the Adiana System for pregnancy prevention. The pregnancy rate was evaluated for all participants who underwent successful bilateral treatment and who had demonstrated tubal occlusion by hysterosalpingogram (HSG) at the end of the Waiting Period.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Device Placement RateIncluding Second Treatment Attempt

Defined as successful bilateral tubal access followed by successful bilateral RF treatment and matrix placement.

3 Year Pregnancy Rate3 years

Pregnancy rate is defined as the cumulative percentage of pregnancies occuring within the time frame. The pregnancy rate was evaluated for all participants who underwent successful bilateral treatment and who had demonstrated tubal occlusion by hysterosalpingogram (HSG) at the end of the Waiting Period who have been followed for up to 3 years.

Patient Satisfaction With Placement Procedure48 hours

Determined by verbal questions up to 48 hours post placement. Endpoint reported represents minimum percentage of participants reporting somewhat satisfied, satisfied or very satisfied.

Patient Satisfaction With Device WearingWearing Period (3-Months, 6-Months, 9-Months, 12-Months)

Determined by verbal questions during periodic follow-up contacts. Endpoint reported represents minimum percentage of subjects reporting somewhat satisfied, satisfied or very satisfied.

Patient Comfort With Placement Procedure48 hours

Determined by verbal questions up to 48 hours post placement. Endpoint reported represents minimum percentage of participants reporting any discomfort or pain experienced in first 48 hours following procedure as the same as they expected, less than they expected or no pain.

Patient Comfort With Device WearingWearing Period (3-Months, 6-Months, 9-Months, 12-Months)

Determined by verbal questions during periodic follow-up contacts. Endpoint represents minimum percentage of subjects reporting good, very good or excellent comfort.
