SURGICAL FLUID MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS

摘要

A surgical fluid management system delivers fluid for distending a uterine cavity to allow cutting and extraction of uterine fibroid tissue, polyps and other abnormal uterine tissue. The system comprises a fluid source, fluid deliver lines, one or more pumps, and a filter for recirculating the distension fluid between the source and the uterine cavity. A controller can monitor fluid retention by the patient.
