Procedural sedation and analgesia versus general anesthesia for hysteroscopic myomectomy: A cost‐effectiveness analysis alongside a randomized controlled trial
In this study, procedural sedation and analgesia for hysteroscopic myomectomy in an outpatient setting is cost-effective compared to general anesthesia in an operating room, although non-inferiority for complete resections could not be demonstrated. We therefore suggest the outpatient use of procedural sedation and analgesia for hysteroscopic myomectomy.
