  • Gender: Female
  • Diagnosis: Women who underwent hysteroscopic device sterilization procedure
  • Diagnosis: Women who underwent tubal ligation sterilization procedure (includes laparoscopic tubal ligation), and salpingectomy

Retrospective
Enrollment
10,578 participants (actual)

Groups and cohorts

  • Cohort 1 / Hysteroscopic device placement

    Patients that had undergone sterilization through hysteroscopic device placement

    Device: Hysteroscopic device placement including Essure (ESS305, BAY1454032)

  • Cohort 2 / Tubal ligation

    Patients that had undergone sterilization through tubal ligation

    Procedure: Tubal ligation

Interventions

  • DeviceHysteroscopic 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

  • ProcedureTubal 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

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of patients having hysterectomy procedure post-sterilization through hysteroscopic device placement

    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)

    Time frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period

  2. Percentage of patients having hysterectomy procedure post-sterilization through through tubal ligation

    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)

    Time frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period

Other outcomes

  1. Percentage of patients having unintended pregnancy post-sterilization

    Exclusion of any IVF pregnancy, and any pregnancy preceding sterilization

    Time frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period

  2. Percentage of patients having unintended ectopic pregnancy post-sterilization

    Exclusion of any IVF pregnancy, and any pregnancy preceding sterilization

    Time frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period

  3. Percentage of patients that have salpingectomy (unilateral, bilateral) subsequent to sterilization

    Time frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period

  4. 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

  5. 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

  6. Percentage of patients with repeat sterilization surgery

    Time frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period

  7. 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

  8. Percentage of patients who undergo a Modified Hysterosalpingogram (HSG) test

    Time frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period

  9. Percentage of patients who did not have a Modified HSG and unintentionally got pregnant

    Time frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period

  10. Percentage of patients having readmission within 30 days of sterilization

    Time frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period

  11. Percentage of patients having removal of device inserts other than hysterectomy or salpingectomy

    Time frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period

  12. Percentage of patients who had Modified HSG and got pregnant

    Time frame: Retrospective analysis of 10 year period
