Rubin test
Ru·bin test (rū'bin), an obsolete test of patency of the fallopian tubes; a cannula is introduced into the cervix uteri, and carbon dioxide gas is passed through the cannula by means of a syringe with manometer attachment; if the tubes are patent, the escape of gas into the abdominal cavity is evidenced by a high-pitched bubbling sound heard on auscultation over the lower abdomen, or free gas under the diaphragm can be demonstrated by radiograph.Rubin test Gynecology A test designed to detect obstruction of the fallopian tubes, which would prevent pregnancy; in the RT, CO2 is blown into the cervix under carefully monitored pressure; if the tube is patent, the CO2 passes into the peritoneal cavity and is absorbed; because the RT merely IDs obstruction, hysterosalpinogography is preferred by many.
