Study Summary
When having certain types of outpatient surgery inside the uterine cavity some women experience heavy bleeding. The only method presently available for controlling such bleeding, short of removing the uterus, involves the placement of a balloon pressure device inside the uterine cavity. The pressure along with the patient's own natural clotting ability will generally stop the bleeding. However, this treatment usually requires at least a 24 hour stay in the hospital. The investigators are researching the use of a compound (FloSeal) already approved for use in other areas of the human body, as a method of controlling bleeding. The use of FloSeal in the uterine cavity has not yet been tested and therefore is not yet an FDA approved indication for its safe use to control bleeding from the uterine cavity. In this study, The investigators want to find out what effect(s) FloSeal has on the uterine cavity. Twenty individuals will be included in this study at Northwest Hospital Center. All twenty individuals will be treated in the same fashion except ten of the participants will randomly be assigned to receive FloSeal and ten will not. Study participants are individuals currently scheduled to have a hysterectomy procedure, which involves surgically removing the uterus from the body for a previously determined standard of care treatment for a non- cancerous medical problem. Before performing the hysterectomy and evaluating the effects of FloSeal upon the tissues within the uterine cavity the following will be done. Once under anesthesia the uterine cavity will be subjected to a curettage (sharp scrapping) to produce a minor amount of bleeding from the lining of the uterus. Ten of the 20 study participants, randomly chosen, will then have FloSeal placed into their uterine cavity. The study participants will not know whether they received FloSeal or not. A balloon pressure device will then be placed into the uterine cavity of all 20 individuals and left in place for 5 minutes
