Efficacy of Endosampler in Endometrial Sampling for Diagnosis of Endometrial Cancer

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and operator satisfaction of Endosampler in endometrial sampling for the diagnosis of endometrial cancer. Study Design: A Non Randomized Experimental Trial. Place and Duration of Study: The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Bahawal Victoria Hospital, Bahawalpur.  From 15 July 2015 to 10 December 2017 Methodology: overall 300 patients were selected for study. Data was collected regarding demographic informations like age, parity and outcome variable as operator satisfaction, positive and negative sampling. Collected data information was entered in SPSS version 24 for mean ± SD calculation of numerical data (age and parity) frequency percentages of categorical variables operator satisfaction, positive and negative sampling was calculated. Student t test was applied on data and p value ≤0.05 was considered as significance. Results: Among studied patents operative satisfaction score (ranged 1-5) was 1-2 73.7% well accepted. While, Operative satisfaction score was ranged 3-5, 26.3% poorly accepted. Positive sampling was 82.7%.While negative sampling was 17.3%. No association was found between operative satisfaction score and sampling. Conclusion: Our results revealed that Endosampler is a useful device for endometrial sampling for the diagnosis of endometrial cancer with high rate of operator satisfaction.
