Rubin's test/uterotubal insufflatorFrom: Jeffrey W. Clemens (clemens@duq.edu)Thu Aug 31 14:46:02 2000
Dear Listers, I have a second edition of Lisser and Escamilla's "Atlas of Clinical Endocrinology", CV Mosby Co. 1962 (meaning the book is older than me!). In the chapter of female infertility, a portable uterotubal insufflation apparatus for the RUBIN TEST is shown along with three panels of kymograph tracings. The reference given is to a company publication (Grafax Instruments, 1955). The caption briefly describes using 1 effervescent tablet and 4 ml water to create pressures of up to 200 mm Hg. Anyone out there ever used this apparatus? Has it been replaced by contrast and dye-based hysterosalpingograms? Jeff -- Jeffrey W.

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.
