Effects of the Intermittent Injection with Super-Low Pressure on the Postoperative Pain Control during the Uterine Artery Embolization for Uterine Myoma

DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2015.053
Synopsis: 
The application of intermittent injection with super-low pressure during UAE can decrease and possibly eliminate post-operative pain. The injection pressure was as low as possible; the injected dose of the embolic agent should be gradually decreased.

ABSTRACT

Objective: Uterine artery embolization (UAE) has been commonly used for uterine myoma with satisfactory effects, but the pain during and following the procedure with an occurrence rate in 100%.The aim of this study was to observe the effects of intermittent injection with super-low pressure on pain control during the UAE for uterine myoma.
