Hysterosalpingography is an important technique for the diagnosis of infertility, and involves injection of contrast medium into the uterus to visualize the anatomy of the reproductive system. Unfortunately, the procedure can be painful, although multiple pain management techniques are available. This study was conducted to determine which of four pain management techniques is the most effective for pain relief during hysterosalpingectomy. The most painful parts of the procedure were also assessed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
