Harm after hysteroscopy


Restoring balance, one patient at a time.
Hysteroscopy is a gynecological endoscope used for diagnosis and treatment of uterine and cervical diseases. It can be divided into diagnostic hysteroscopy and therapeutic hysteroscopy. After hysteroscopy, attention should be paid to follow-up and treatment of complications, that is, the harm after examination, which can be caused by uterine perforation, mostly mechanical damage. It mainly occurs during the difficult surgical process such as uterine decomposition or endometrial resection, or when the patient's cervical condition is poor. Secondly, if the muscular layer is cut too deeply to damage the blood vessels in the deep muscular layer, uterine bleeding is prone to occur. In a few cases, it can also occur after surgery, but there is no bleeding during the operation. During the application of hysteroscopy, normal saline is used to make uterine distension fluid, and patients are prone to hyponatremia. Because during monopolar electrosurgical resection, a large amount of fluid enters in a short period of time, which can cause death in severe cases, the operation time should be shortened as much as possible. If the fluid volume is more than 1000ml, the operation should be terminated in time and the changes in the patient's vital signs should be noted.
