  • Patent number: 11849991
    Abstract: A method and system of providing therapy to a patient's uterus is provided, which can include any number of features. The method can include the steps of inserting a uterine device into the uterus and performing a uterine integrity test to determine that the uterus is intact and not perforated. If it is determined that the uterus is not perforated, a patency test can be performed to determine that the uterine device is not clogged or embedded in tissue. If the uterus is intact and the device is not clogged or embedded in tissue, the uterus can be treated with the uterine device, e.g., uterine ablation. Systems for performing these methods are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20220039853
    Abstract: A method and system of providing therapy to a patient's uterus. The method can include the steps of inserting a uterine ablation device into the uterus; expanding a distal anchor; inflating a proximal balloon to pull the distal anchor proximally and seat the distal anchor against the internal os of the uterus; inflating a central balloon to seal the cervix; delivering vapor from the uterine ablation device into the uterus; and condensing the vapor on tissue within the uterus. The system can include a cervical collar adapted to place a distal portion of the device within the uterus when the cervical collar contacts an external os of the cervix.
