Brief Summary:
This study is designed to observe the presence or absence of intrauterine adhesions at 6 weeks after treatment with the Sonata® System through hysteroscopic evaluation by third party readers.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Uterine Fibroids Adhesions Device: Intrauterine ultrasound guided radio-frequency ablation

Detailed Description:

Patients who agree to participate in this observational trial will have selected fibroid treatment with the Sonata System. Research participants will undergo hysteroscopy at 6 weeks following treatment to evaluate presence or absence of intrauterine adhesions.

Research participants will be asked to complete a quality of life questionnaire prior to and 6 weeks following treatment. Research participants will also complete a satisfaction survey and a diary that tracks their return to normal daily activities.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Groups and Cohorts Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Participants With Absence of Newly Formed Intrauterine Adhesions Following RF Ablation of Fibroids [ Time Frame: 6 weeks ]
    Hysteroscopic evaluation by independent readers to determine the presence or absence of adhesions following transcervical RF ablation of fibroids with the Sonata system in participants who completed the follow-up assessment AND evaluable hysteroscopy videos.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Umber of Participants With Absence of Newly Formed Adhesions Following RF Ablation of Fibroids in Participants With Apposing Fibroids Treated [ Time Frame: 6 weeks ]
    As the risk of adhesion formation is higher when apposing fibroids are treated, this outcome measure assesses adhesiogenesis in the subgroup of the population who completed the follow-up assessment, had evaluable hysteroscopy videos, and had apposing fibroids treated.
