Hysteroscopy is particularly valuable for the diagnosis of uterine cavity abnormalities through direct visualization. The development of office hysteroscopy has expanded the range of diagnostic and surgical procedures available. These detailed guidelines include patient counseling and the selection and setting of office hysteroscopy, including room, equipment, and medical staff. Analgesia or local anesthesia is often required in selective office hysteroscopy cases. Cervical dilation and preparation using medical or mechanical methods are required for most diagnostic hysteroscopic procedures. Methods for optimizing visualization and choosing suitable distension media are important for a successful office hysteroscopy. It is crucial to adhere to guidelines to prevent complications, such as vasovagal syncope, cervical trauma, uterine perforation, fluid overload, and embolism. Vaginoscopy can be a good alternative option for alleviating pain, especially in cases where the insertion of a vaginal speculum is expected to be challenging.

Objective: The rapid societal changes have underscored the importance of effective stress detection and management. Chronic mental stress significantly contributes to both physical and psychological illnesses. However, many individuals often remain unaware of their stress levels until they face physical health issues, highlighting the necessity for regular stress monitoring. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of vocal biomarkers in detecting stress levels among healthy Korean employees and to contribute to digital healthcare solutions. Methods: We conducted a multi-center clinical study by collecting voice recordings from 115 healthy Korean employees under both relaxed and stress-induced conditions. Stress was induced using the socially evaluated cold pressor test. The Emphasized Channel Attention, Propagation and Aggregation in Time delay neural network (ECAPA-TDNN) deep learning architecture, renowned for its advanced capabilities in analyzing person-specific voice features, was employed to develop stress prediction scores. Results: The proposed model achieved a 70% accuracy rate in detecting stress. This performance underscores the potential of vocal biomarkers as a convenient and effective tool for individuals to self-monitor and manage their stress levels within digital healthcare frameworks. Conclusion The findings emphasize the promise of voice-based mental stress assessments within the Korean population and the importance of continued research on vocal biomarkers across diverse linguistic demographics.
