Hemostatic Procedure After Biopsy of the Cervix

February 13, 2016 updated by: Dr. med. Ziad Hilal, Zydolab - Institute of Cytology and Immune Cytochemistry

Is a Hemostatic Procedure Required After Biopsy of the Cervix Uteri in Women Undergoing Colposcopy for Cervical Dysplasia? A Multicenter Randomized Non-inferiority Trial

Cytological abnormalities of the Cervix uteri need to be clarified by colposcopy biopsy. To avoid bleeding after biopsy, monsel´s paste is a common used Agent. In a randomized clinical Trial the use of monsel´s paste after biopsy will be compared to no Intervention. The Primary outcome of the study is blood loss, secondary outcomes are pain, satisfaction of the patient and influence of Independent factors such as Age and Body mass index.
