Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Improvement in patient's fibroid-related quality of life
To evaluate procedural efficacy by the improvement in patient's fibroid-related quality of life as assessed in scores of symptom severity subscale questionnaire (SSS-UFS-QOL) at 12 months post-treatment comparing to baseline score.
12 months
Incidence, subsequent interventions and procedure-related adverse events
To evaluate procedural safety by monitoring incidence, subsequent interventions and procedure-related adverse events within 12 months of treatment
12 months
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Reduction in fibroid volume
