Re: Rubin's test/uterotubal insufflatorFrom: Gibbons, John (JGibbons@stfranciscare.org)Thu Aug 31 15:18:09 2000
When I was a resident, one of my professors showed me his Rubin Insufflator and demonstrated its use. As I remember, a CO2 cartridge was employed (probably a late model Rubin). The operator released the gas into the uterus and oviducts observing the steady rise of pressure on the manometer. If the oviducts were "open", the pressure suddenly dropped as the gas flowed into the peritoneal cavity...if not, the pressure was allowed to rise to a certain point hoping to "blow the tubes open." I never used the equipment and haven't thought about it for years. Thanks for the memories.

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.
