MÉTODO: Búsqueda bibliográfica de artículos publicados en inglés o español con la palabra clave PALM COEIN. Desde el primer artículo publicado en 2010 hasta 2018 en las bases de datos MedLine, PubMed, Embase y Ovid.  RESULTADOS: Se reunieron 64 artículos, pero solo 18 mencionaban el término, 24 eran repetidos. Se seleccionaron 22 que trataban el tema en estudio y eran referidos con la clasificación actual, de esos trabajos 6 eran de cohorte, 2 de revisión sistemática, 2 boletines y 12 revisiones de tema.  CONCLUSIÓN: Esta nueva terminología facilitará el entendimiento y la comunicación, independiente del idioma y la cultura, además del acercamiento más entendible con nuestras pacientes. La clasificación PALM COEIN facilita la investigación epidemiológica, etiológica y el tratamiento de las pacientes con sangrado uterino anormal.]]></p></abstract>
