Outcome measures
Primary outcome
The primary outcome of this study was to determine the feasibility of recording the pressure build-up within the reproductive tract during an HSG procedure, with the use of a disposable fluid syringe with an integral pressure transducer.
Secondary outcome
Secondary outcome measures were three pain scores on the Visual Analogue Scale for Pain (scores range from 0.0 to 10.0 cm, no pain to unbearable pain) and the fluoroscopy images of the HSG procedure.
Background summary
Tubal patency testing by hysterosalpingography (HSG) is a routine procedure and has been shown to have a therapeutic effect.
One of the hypotheses for this fertility enhancing effect is the dislodgement of “debris” from the Fallopian tube after a pressure build-up within the Fallopian tubes.
The pattern of pressure build-up during HSG’s is unknown.
We designed this study to determine the feasibility of in-vivo pressure build-up measurement during HSG’s.
Study objective
There is no previous experience of measuring the pressure build-up within the reproductive tract during an HSG procedure by using this digital method. This study will test its feasibility.
Study design
The follow-up stops as soon as the HSG procedure is finished.
Inclusion criteria
All women scheduled for an HSG
Exclusion criteria
