Prevention of Postoperative Adhesion Reformation by Intrauterine Balloon Therapy: a Randomized Controlled Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating IUB dilatation therapy for Intrauterine Adhesion. Completed, enrolled 200 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
In this prospective, randomized, controlled study, the investigators wish to determine the efficacy of intrauterine balloon (IUB) dilatation in the prevention of adhesion reformation when compared with the conventional management.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
A Foley catheter (size 14fr) will be prepared by cutting the excess catheter tip protruding beyond the balloon prior to insertion into the uterine cavity. Once the catheter has reached the fundus, 3-4.5mls of saline will be slowly introduced into the balloon under ultrasound guidance, in order to directly visualize the distention of the cavity and division of any intrauterine adhesions, if present.
