Group/Cohort | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Cohort 1 / Hysteroscopic device placement
Patients that had undergone sterilization through hysteroscopic device placement
|
Device: Hysteroscopic device placement including Essure (ESS305, BAY1454032)
Essure is a permanent, minimally invasive, non-hormonal implantable device used for contraception and Adiana sterilization method is a combination of controlled thermal damage to the lining of the fallopian tube followed by insertion of a non-absorbable biocompatible silicone elastomer matrix within the tubal lumen |
Cohort 2 / Tubal ligation
Patients that had undergone sterilization through tubal ligation
|
Procedure: Tubal ligation
Tubal ligation or tubectomy is a surgical procedure for sterilization in which a woman's fallopian tubes are clamped and blocked, or severed and sealed, either method of which prevents eggs from reaching the uterus for implantation |
- Percentage of patients having hysterectomy procedure post-sterilization through hysteroscopic device placement [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]The study will also describe sub-outcomes related to post-sterilization hysterectomy procedure including: i. Average time (in days) from index date (sterilization) to hysterectomy ii. Percentage of patients having hysterectomy (abdominal) iii. Percentage of patients having hysterectomy (vaginal) iv. Percentage of patients having hysterectomy (laproscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy - LAVH) v. Percentage of patients having hysterectomy (abdominal, vaginal and LAVH)
- Percentage of patients having hysterectomy procedure post-sterilization through through tubal ligation [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]The study will also describe sub-outcomes related to post-sterilization hysterectomy procedure including: i. Average time (in days) from index date (sterilization) to hysterectomy ii. Percentage of patients having hysterectomy (abdominal) iii. Percentage of patients having hysterectomy (vaginal) iv. Percentage of patients having hysterectomy (laproscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy - LAVH) v. Percentage of patients having hysterectomy (abdominal, vaginal and LAVH)
- Percentage of patients having unintended pregnancy post-sterilization [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]Exclusion of any IVF pregnancy, and any pregnancy preceding sterilization
- Percentage of patients having unintended ectopic pregnancy post-sterilization [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]Exclusion of any IVF pregnancy, and any pregnancy preceding sterilization
- Percentage of patients that have salpingectomy (unilateral, bilateral) subsequent to sterilization [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]
- Average time in days from sterilization to salpingectomy and Kaplan-Meier-Estimator curve (number of occurrence over time) [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]
- Average time in days from sterilization to removal of device inserts other than hysterectomy or salpingectomy and Kaplan-Meier-Estimator curve (number of occurrence over time) [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]
- Percentage of patients with repeat sterilization surgery [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]
- Average time in days from first sterilization to repeat sterilization surgery and Kaplan-Meier-Estimator curve (number of occurrence over time) [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]
- Percentage of patients who undergo a Modified Hysterosalpingogram (HSG) test [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]
- Percentage of patients who did not have a Modified HSG and unintentionally got pregnant [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]
- Percentage of patients having readmission within 30 days of sterilization [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]
- Percentage of patients having removal of device inserts other than hysterectomy or salpingectomy [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]
- Percentage of patients who had Modified HSG and got pregnant [ Time Frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period ]
