I like it; it is easy to use both in the hospital and the office (where the reimbursement is usually 3-4 times greater.) However there have been deaths associated with it.alas nothing is perfect

From: ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net [mailto:ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net] On Behalf Of Glen Elrod Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2008 6:00 PM To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L Subject: Novasure

Does anyone have any experience with using Novasure? Our hospital does not have an endometrial ablation device at all (short of roller ball) and I met with the Novasure rep today. It looks easy enough to do, but my experience with Thermachoice as the only other ablation device I've used is that it didn't give very good results. I would like any information anyone has regarding hospital use, office use, and followup.

Thanks,

Glen

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
