Active clinical trials for "Uterine Diseases"

Aim: Determine if Rapid Evaporative Ionization Mass Spectrometry (the iKnife); can diagnose cancer and pre-cancer from endometrial tissue biopsy samples. Women attending a gynaecology clinic for assessment of abnormal bleeding will receive an pelvic (internal) ultrasound as routine standard of care. If any abnormalities are detected, a tissue sample will be needed. If women are agreeable a second tissue sample will be taken for research. The first will be analysed by conventional means (histopathology). The second sample with new technology called the 'iKnife'. This is a modified type of Mass spectrometry device, that separates particles based on their mass charge ratio. The idea being that if tissue is burnt, gas is produced, and this gas contains lots of ions that can be analysed by the iKnife. Each type of tissue (cancer or non-cancer) will have a unique signature that the iKnife can use to distinguish between samples. If effective it could be used in future outpatient clinics to provide a one-stop, true point of care diagnosis.

Progesterone resistance is mediated through epigenetic modification through SirT1 activation and is thought to contribute to infertility and progression of endometriosis. Endometriosis is a leading cause of unexplained IVF failure secondary to inflammatory changes that induce SirT1. The current study is designed to investigate a small molecule inhibitor of SirT1, in the clinical setting of In Vitro Fertilization and Embryo Transfer. The SAFER trial will compare EX-527 to placebo in a randomized, double-blind trial. Primary endpoints include Live Birth Rate (LBR) and secondary outcomes include pregnancy rate (PR), miscarriage rate (MR) and implantation failure rate.

The Self-Testing options in the Era of Primary HPV screening for cervical cancer (STEP) trial will evaluate effectiveness of home-based HPV kits for improving cervical cancer screening uptake and its cost-effectiveness. The investigators will compare cervical cancer screening uptake within six months among women randomized to different outreach approaches based on prior screening behavior: A) Adherent and coming due: direct mail HPV kit vs. opt-in HPV kit vs. education; B) Overdue: direct mail HPV kit vs. education; C) Unknown: opt-in HPV kit vs. education.

The present study revealed that the TL position is supposed to be more efficient not only for lowering pain score but also reducing the procedural time. Also, performing hysteroscopy in this position may be easier for doctors than in the lithotomy position.

Investigation of the effects of D-chiro-inositol supplementation in women with altered endometrial thickness.

The aim of this study is to investigate that the efficacy of the endometrial injury before IVF in recurrent implantation failure patients.

Background Managing perioperative stress, including endocrino-metabolic changes and, inflammatory and pain responses, is a major challenge to improve patient's recovery. Currently, minimally invasive surgical procedures combined with multimodal analgesia are commonly used to increase the quality of postoperative period. Purpose To demonstrate that a minimally invasive approach including low insufflation pressure and minitrocars in laparoscopic hysterectomy improves postoperative recovery and reduces pain stimulation and opioid consumption in comparison with a conventional approach. Methods After informed consent, all patients scheduled for a laparoscopic hysterectomy including those with carcinologic disease will be part of this monocentric prospective randomized double-blinded study. At admission in our outpatient unit, patients will have to fill the Post-operative Quality of Recovery Scale assessment form, before to be randomized into one of the following two groups: Conventional approach: laparoscopic procedure including standard trocars (3 trocars of 5 mm and a 10 mm-optic trocar) with insufflation pressures between 10 and 12 mmHg. Mini-invasive approach : laparoscopic surgery using mini-trocars (3 trocars of 3 mm and a 5 mm-optic trocar) with insufflation pressures of less than 8 mmHg. Both groups will have general anesthesia with a deep neuromuscular blockade (TOF = 0 at the thumb adductor) and will benefit of our enhanced recovery program. Patients and evaluators will be blind regarding the allocated group. The primary outcome is a comparison of the postoperative recovery between the two groups through the Post-operative Quality of Recovery Scale.This evaluation will include pain data, nausea/vomiting evaluation and cognitive function 6 hours after surgery. Secondary outcomes are morphine consumption surgical comfort and patient satisfaction.

Hysterectomy for benign uterine disease is often intended to young perimenopausal patients. Currently laparoscopic hysterectomy is commonly used in this indication. We are wondering if decreasing the diameter of laparoscopic instruments could reduce postoperative pain and improve esthetic result without increasing operative time. The purpose of the study is to improve patients' care.

The purpose of this study was to obtain a predictive model to asses the Risk of Endometrial Malignancy (REM) in women with ultrasound endometrial abnormalities.

Investigator will examined the diagnostic effect of the endometrial washing by saline. Because this technique more less painful and easier compared to endometrial curettage. Participants will separate into two groups. In study groups before endometrial curettage 5 cc saline infused to the endometrial cavity then aspirate and put into thin prep to examined. After this procedure routine endometrial curettage will be done. In control group only endometrial curettage will be done. Pathologic results of thin prep and curettage will compared.
