SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Measured Immediately after procedure

Used a Visual Analogue Scale to determine the ease of procedure by blinded surgeon. The VAS ranges from 0-100. 0 being the easiest procedure the surgeon felt they had every performed and 100 being the most difficult procedure imaginable by the surgeon.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Measured pre-operatively (after misoprostol, immediately before transport to OR) and post-operatively (in recovery room, on average 1.5 hours post-operatively)

Used a Visual Analogue Scale to determine the pain perceived by the patient pre-operatively (after misoprostol, immediately before transport to OR) and post-operatively (in recovery room, on average 1.5 hours post-operatively). The VAS ranges from 0-100. 0 being no pain felt by the patient and 100 being the worst pain imaginable felt by the patient.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Measured post operatively (at least 30 minutes, on average 1.5 hours) prior to discharge

Used a Visual Analogue Scale to determine the patient's overall satisfaction with her experience. The VAS ranges from 0-100. 0 being a worse than expected experience, 50 being what the patient expected and 100 being a better than expected experience.
