Health guidance role in treatment of uterine fibroids in high intensity focused ultrasound ablation

Objective To explore the health guidance role on treating uterine fibroids in high intensity focused ultrasound thermal ablation(HIFU). Methods High intensity focused ultrasound ablation treatment was used in 74 cases of uterine fibroids patients before and after treatment to enable patients to better health guidance with treatment. Results After treatment,symptoms of patients with the clinical manifestation including menstrual too much,dysmenorrhea, frequent urination, constipation and anemia, were significantly improved. The volume of myoma of uterus before treatment and after treatment for 3 months,6 months and 1 year were(100.780±104.243)cm3,(53.446±49.546)cm3,(32.704±32.246)cm3 and(21.991±16.301)cm3, respectively. The volume of myoma of uterus gradually reduced after treatment as compared with that before treatment, the difference had statistical significance(t=6.758,186,7.567,all P<0.01). Conclusion Effective health guidance is beneficial to HIFU treatment for patient. Key words: High intensity focused ultrasound thermal ablation; Uterine tumor; Health education
