Summary
This trial aims to compare the accuracy of a new device called Visual Saline Infusion Device (VSI) with the standard method, Hydrosonography, in identifying uterine problems in women of
Who is the study for?
This trial is for women of reproductive age who may have uterine abnormalities affecting fertility. Participants should not be currently pregnant, and must be willing to undergo diagnostic procedures to examine the inside of their uterus.
What is being tested?
The study is comparing two methods used to detect problems inside the uterus: a new device that allows doctors to see directly into the uterus with saline infusion (VSI), versus the usual method using sound waves in water (Hydrosonography).
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects from these procedures could include discomfort or pain during insertion, cramping similar to menstrual cramps, light vaginal bleeding, and less commonly infection or injury to the uterus.

Trial Design
2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Visual Saline InfusionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Visual Saline Infusion is intended to perform direct visual evaluation of the intrauterine space using a 2.7mm, steerable tip catheter with a camera.
Group II: HydrosonographyActive Control1 Intervention
Hydrosonography is the standard of care for intrauterine evaluation. It is performed by inserting a slim 2 mm catheter into the uterine cavity and infusing saline solution to expand the uterus, and using abdominal ultrasound to detect intrauterine pathology.
