Pain Reduction and Ovarian Perfusion Following Uterine Fibroid Embolization (PEDD-UFE)

April 20, 2025 updated by: Dania Daye, MD, PhD, Massachusetts General Hospital

Pain Reduction and Ovarian Perfusion Following Uterine Fibroid Embolization Via Pressure-Enabled Drug Delivery With the TriNav Infusion System (PEDD-UFE)

The goal of this study is to assess of Pressure-Enabled Drug Delivery on fibroid treatment in patients undergoing UFE.

Detailed Description

Uterine fibroids are the most common tumor type in women of reproductive age and may be associated with abnormal menstrual bleeding, pain, sub-fertility, and diminished quality of life. For women interested in uterine preservation who want to derive adequate relief from medical management, uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) is a treatment option. The goal of this study is to assess of Pressure-Enabled Drug Delivery on fibroid treatment in patients undergoing UFE.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pain Reduction
Time Frame: 6 months
The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Pain score will be used to assess pre- and post-procedural pain. The scale is from 1 to 10 with 1 indicating no pain and 10 indicating extreme pain.
6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures
