Hysteroscopy is used to diagnose or treat problems of the uterus.

Overview

Indications

Surgical procedure

Preoperative management

Patient evaluation


System	Considerations
Airway
Neurologic
Cardiovascular
Pulmonary
Gastrointestinal
Hematologic
Renal
Endocrine
Other

Labs and studies

Hgb/Hct if bleeding
Pregnancy test (if indicated)

Operating room setup

Patient preparation and premedication

Regional and neuraxial techniques

A T10 sensory level is sufficient
Spinal
Epidural
Combined spinal/epidural (CSE)

Intraoperative management

Monitoring and access

Induction and airway management

Positioning

Maintenance and surgical considerations

When cervix is grasped and dilated, patient may have excessive vagal nerve stimulation

Emergence

Postoperative management

Disposition

Pain management

Potential complications

Air embolism
- Can occur with the use of gas dissension medium, although low-viscosity fluids are more commonly used today
Fluid overload
- Can occur with the use of low-viscosity dissension media
Infection
Bleeding

Procedure variants


	Variant 1	Variant 2
Unique considerations
Position
Surgical time
EBL
Postoperative disposition
Pain management
Potential complications
