About The Exem Foam Kit
The ExEm® Foam Kit enables easy recognition of tubal patency by using a new technique: Hysterosalpingo Foam Sonography (HyFoSy). The ExEm® Foam Kit has been developed for creating a foam. This technique also enables verification of the correct placement of the micro implants after a sterilization procedure (Essure or Adiana).
ExEm foam kits (also known as HyFosy) provide an inexpensive simple one kit solution for outpatient ultrasound testing of tubal patency and uterine anatomy in patients with fertility or gynaecological problems. Better results in HyCosy procedures, the imaging is superior and longer lasting than any other sonohysterography products
With the ExEm® Foam-kit, a foam can be created for Hysterosalpingo Sonography.
By mixing ExEm® gel and purified water a gel foam is created. After infusing the foam through the uterine cavity into the fallopian tubes, practical ultrasound images can be obtained to check the patency of the fallopian tubes in infertility patients. Subsequently high quality ultrasound images can be obtained. The ExEm® Foam-kit contains a 10 ml syringe with ExEm® gel, a 10 ml syringe with purified water, an empty 20 ml syringe and a coupling device.
ExEm gel consists of: hydroxyethylcellulose and glycerol
