+Patient Selection
Unhappy with current form of birth control or contraindicated (i.e., smokers over 35, hypertensive on OCs)
OB patients pregnant with last child Contraindicated for pregnancy or tubal ligation Patients waiting for husband to have a vasectomy Patients considering endometrial ablation (Essure
should be done first and then ablation after HSG confirms bilateral tubal occlusion)

+Patient Considerations
Like all methods of birth control, the Essure procedure should not be considered 100% effective
Insert placement may not be successful
NOT REVERSIBLE; knowledge of insert compatibility with IVF is limited
Placement discouraged in women undergoing immunosuppressive therapy — therapy may negatively affect tissue response that leads to tubal occlusion Systemic corticosteroids Chemotherapy

+Patient Counseling
Set appropriate expectations High placement success – small percentage unable to
place Discomfort is similar to menstrual cramps Average procedure time 10 minutes or less –
in and out of the office in 45 minutes Return to normal activity within one day Compliance with Essure Confirmation Test is critical
MUST USE RELIABLE CONTRACEPTION UNTIL TUBAL OCCLUSION IS DOCUMENTED ON HSG (3 MONTHS AFTER PLACEMENT)

9+Nickel Allergy?
June 2011 FDA removed nickel as a contraindication and recommendation that patients get skin testing prior to Essure
Our counseling (University of CO): Explain to patients that nickel is usually a contact dermatitis
reaction. If allergy occurs, can remove coils. Ask if they have any reaction to buttons on jeans.
700+ procedures1 allergy Coils removed with hysteroscopy 8 days after placement Symptoms resolved in <24 hours

All symptoms resolved

12+Prior to placement/during general counseling: Laparoscopic and Hysteroscopic Sterilization: both have
risks Lpsc: mortality1-2/10,000 from GET anesthesia Lpsc: also involves foreign body (Filshie Clips, Falope Rings)
Explain that removal of Essure is typically a simple procedure, if it is needed for any reason
Explain how it is done Hysteroscopically Laparoscopically SHOULD NOT NEED HYSTERECTOMY

13+Points to Remember
Safe; no incisions & no GET anesthesia Effective (99.83%) High rate of bilateral placement in one visit (96.9%) Typically done in office; minimal recovery time Not immediate: need 3 month HSG for confirmation Uterine lining prep and contraception until HSG
confirmation Screen for metal/nickel allergies
