Review of NICE Technology Appraisal Guidance No 78; fluid filled thermal balloon and microwave endometrial ablation for menstrual bleeding

Review Decision - December 2007

Following consultation, the majority of comments received by the Institute  have led to the decision to defer the review of the original technology appraisal guidance no. 78 for two years.

At this point the evidence base will be reviewed in conjunction with the two year review of the guideline on heavy menstrual bleeding. We anticipate this work will lead to the guidance no. 78 being updated within the guideline.

The responses from this consultation can be found below.
