Hologic launches multipurpose Omni-Hysteroscope

Hologic announced the launch of its FDA cleared, innovative 3-in-1 Omni™ Hysteroscope equipped with advanced visualization capabilities to streamline the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

The scope comes with 3 interchangeable sheaths which eliminate the physician need to change the scope between diagnostic and treatment procedures. Additionally, the scope is armed with Premium MyoSure optics to ensure clarity and quality visualization throughout the procedure.

The patients experience less pain and discomfort because the scope can be easily inserted because of thin sheaths (3.7 mm diagnostic sheath; 5 mm operative sheath; 6 mm operative sheath). It also provides long 200 mm working length to efficiently work with obese patients.

The sheaths are compatible to use with Hologic’s Fluent™ hysteroscopic fluid management system and all MyoSure® tissue removal offerings including MyoSure REACH, MyoSure XL, MyoSure LITE, and MyoSure MANUAL devices.

“Experts agree that direct visualization of the uterine cavity in women with abnormal uterine bleeding is the gold standard that allows physicians to accurately identify and collect quality samples and remove pathology – in a safer and more effective manner than blind biopsy and curettage,” said Edward Evantash, M.D., Medical Director and Vice President of Global Medical Affairs, Hologic. 

“Featuring three easily interchangeable sheaths in one scope, our new Omni scope gives physicians excellent visualization capabilities with the convenience of seeing and treating pathology in a more streamlined procedure,” he added.

Hologic unveils Fluent fluid management system that simplifies and streamlines hysteroscopies

Hologic launches its new Fluent™ fluid management system to streamline the liquid distention of the uterus during diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy and measure the volume of irrigation fluid in and out of the uterus.

The system is easy to set-up and the user-friendly interface prompts the operator through all the steps to set-up and wraps the operation. The screen provides large visual and audible alerts during monitoring of fluid deficit, pressure, low fluid bags, and full waste bags to keep the procedure running smoothly.

The system is sensitive enough to detect a change in average intrauterine pressure of less than 1% and fluid deficit within +/- 50 mL when running the MyoSure® system. A single waste bag eliminates the need of multiple canisters.

"We developed the Fluent system with a deep understanding of the hectic workflow that often characterizes the patient and staff experience," said Sean Daugherty, President of GYN Surgical Solutions, Hologic. "This launch is a testament to how our strong customer partnerships and unique technological innovations enable us to provide healthcare professionals with the advanced equipment they need to improve lives."

"Fluid management plays a vital role in gynecological procedures, yet there have been few advances in the technology," said Edward Evantash, M.D., Medical Director and Vice President of Global Medical Affairs, Hologic. "The Fluent system is changing the game in fluid management. Developed in response to the challenges facing nurses and doctors performing hysteroscopies, it combines a streamlined design with innovative technology for more efficient fluid monitoring during procedures."
