AB  - Current    tubal    occlusion    confirmation    tests    after    permanent    contraception     require    imaging    procedures    and    skilled    professionals    to    perform    and    interpret    the     examinations.    Alternative    methods    that    increase    accessibility,    decrease    cost    and    decrease     the    need    for    high-­‐tech    equipment    have    not    yet    been    developed.    Using    intrauterine    pressure     (IUP)    as    an    indicator    of    occlusion    following    a    PC    procedure    may    meet    these    needs.    Our    goal     is    to    simplify    the    confirmation    procedure    after    hysteroscopic    or    nonsurgical    permanent     contraception    (NSPC)    by    developing    an    office-­‐based    test    using    elevated    IUP    as    an    indicator     of    successful    blockade. We    hypothesized    that    an    IUP    threshold    exists    to    correctly    identify    tubal     occlusion    following    PC    with    acceptable    sensitivity    and    specificity.
