title: [Study of the efficacy and tolerance of Iopamiron 370 compared to Telebrix Hystero in hysterosalpingography].
abstract: Hysterosalpingography is used to study the state of the uterine cavity as well as to analyse the patency of the tubes and the state of the tubal mucosa. It is difficult to find a contrast medium that has both the ideal qualities, be well tolerated and able to show fine pictures that have good contrasts, while at the same time are sufficiently viscous to allow up examination. The contrasts products that are used to carry out hysterosalpingography are often classed as viscous (Telebrix Hystero) and fluid (Iopamiron). This prospective randomised study compares local tolerance and efficiency of the two products. Fifty patients had Iopamiron and 48 Telebrix Hystero in July 1988 and February 1989. There was a statistical difference between the two groups which was significantly in favour of Iopamiron on the following features: Pain as noted on a questionnaire with steps of five points each (p = 0.02), Pain as described by the patient immediately after the examination on a visual analogue scale with p less than 0.01. Overall appreciation of the two products according to their tolerance and the efficiency of the products, which is to say the clearness of the pictures obtained with a p = 0.05.
