Starting a Hysteroscopy Program

The process of starting a hysteroscopy program will vary by practice, clinic, institution and health care system and will depend on a number of factors including the regulatory environment, local issues and the existing instruments as well as the training of the medical and support staff. This section of this toolbox is designed to provide assistance and general guidance but cannot replace diligent adherence to local regulations. Where procedures are done - in the office or operating room - and what anesthesia is used - general, regional, local or none - will vary amongst sites depending on available training and resources.
