A Fluid-Management Drape for Hysteroscopy: Innovation for Improved Patient Safety and Surgical Care.

Background: Hysteroscopy requires accurate collection of unabsorbed distension media to measure patient fluid absorption. We assessed the effectiveness and usability of a novel total capture drape compared with a standard drape during hysteroscopy.

Method: Simulation trials were followed by an early-phase study to compare fluid-capture efficiency and measures of drape usability during hysteroscopy randomizing the total capture drape compared with a standard drape.
