WHY CONSIDER OFFICE HYSTEROSCOPY?

PHYSICIANS HAVE FOUND: • Overall, was found to be significantly better in diagnosing any endometrial

abnormality compared to transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and saline infusion sonohysterography (SIS)2

• Ability to simultaneously image the endometrial cavity and perform procedures ranging from endometrial biopsy to polypectomy and more3

• Gold standard in assessment of abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) in postmenopausal women4

• Dramatically reduces false-negative results of blind biopsy4

A broad spectrum of diagnostic and operative procedures can be performed successfully, comfortably, and inexpensively in the context of an office procedure room, using either no sedation or anesthesia to a range of local anesthetic techniques that depend on the procedure to be performed and the experience and training of the clinician.6 (M. Munro)

The addition of Office Hysteroscopy should be considered as a compliment to your current in-office diagnostic tools.

HysteroscopyDiagnostic & Operative

• In a study conducted in 100 women, 93% stated they would repeat the same procedure if clinically needed and 97% of the women would recommend Office Hysteroscopy to a friend.8

• Patients may not be subjected to potential dangers of general anesthesia1

• Number of office visits required to diagnose and treat intrauterine pathology and days off from work is reduced1

• Patient has the option of watching their procedure in real-time which may increase a feeling of comfort1

An underutilized tool, office hysteroscopy should be considered for your office in order to maximize workflow, heighten patient satisfaction and support reimbursement strategies:

Likewise, Office Hysteroscopy has additional benefits for a better patient experience and environment:

• Reduces number of OR procedures as well as time out of office for travel, paperwork and perioperative time which is not reimbursed1

• Reimbursement for these procedures is higher than for a simple endometrial biopsy and more information can be obtained through direct visualization1

• Office Hysteroscopy offers significant economic savings to patients in comparison to hospital (facility) procedures7
