[Retracted] Effect of Vaginoscopy versus Conventional Hysteroscopy on Pain, Complications, and Patient Satisfaction in Patients with Endometrial Polyps

Figure 1

Pain VAS scores of patients in both groups. In this study, statistics of pain VAS scores of patients in both groups were entered into excel software by the first author and corresponding author, respectively, and the included data were tested by the Shapiro-Wilk method conforming to the normal distribution of the measurement data described by , and independent sample or paired sample -test was implemented between or within groups. The time taken for examination was different for different hysteroscopy methods, and the difference was statistically significant for the longest time taken in the hysteroscopy group compared with the vaginoscopy group, respectively (a). The VAS scores of patients in the hysteroscopy group immediately after the examination and 30 min after the examination (b) were higher than those in the vaginoscopy group, and the differences were statistically significant ().
