Filter by:The presence of co-existence of cervical elongation in women of uterine prolapse may decrease the patients' satisfaction of uterine-preservation surgery for uterine prolapse, and additional surgery, such as Manchester surgery, may be needed to solve the problem.Thus the aim of this study is to investigate the risk factors of co-existence of cervical elongation in uterine prolapse.
Female pelvic floor disorders (PFDs) include urinary incontinence,pelvic organ prolapse (POP), and fecal incontinence-which often occur together. Pelvic floor disorders impair multiple aspects of the life quality, including the sexual function of women. Surgery became the first choice of treatment, however, and not until 1980s was the renewed interest in conservative therapies. This may be because of higher awareness among women and cost of and morbidity after surgery. The conservative treatment included pelvic floor muscle training, electrical stimulation, vaginal cones, and biofeedback. The outcome was up to 35~70 % improved rate as the literature before. Current guidelines recommended conservative management as a first-line therapy. However, there was no consistent consensus on this issue due to variations in stimulation parameters、adjuvant concurrent modality or duration of treatment course, and insufficient result about large and long term follow up of randomized- controlled studies. Therefore, the investigators try to conduct one randomized-controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of conservative treatment for Pelvic floor disorder (Pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, chronic pelvic pain etc.). At the aspect of Quality of life, our studies tried to focus on the different domains of pelvic disorder and sexual quality by means of validated questionnaire more objectively.
Genital prolapse is a common condition (up 20%), affecting the quality of life. Treatment can be surgical or conservative using vaginal pessaries. These devices are introduced into the vagina aiming to reduces the prolapse. Pessaries have shown effectiveness in improving symptoms and quality of life. There are no randomized studies comparing them with surgery. This study design would be difficult to perform, because the inclusion criteria for both treatments are different. There are no currently standard protocols for the use of pessaries. This makes harder to widespread the usage of this conservative treatment. The aim of the investigators is to identify variables that influence the success of conservative management of genital prolapse at 1 year of follow up. Using these variables and an expert panel opinion the investigators will develop a standardized protocol for pessary management. Chile has a primary gynecological care system based midwives. Therefore having algorithms for pessaries usage becomes relevant. This algorithm can be implemented with basic training. This would increase the respond capacity, by the health care system to this disease, considering the scarce access to surgery. The investigators hypothesis is: It is possible to generate a standardized protocol of conservative management of symptomatic genital prolapse in patient's beneficiary of public health system in Santiago, Chile, using pessaries through a prospective cohort study based in the success of these devices with 1 year of follow up, measured with questionnaires of symptoms, quality of life and sexuality
Women with pelvic organ prolapse often accompany with urinary symptoms or sexual dysfunction, and analyzing the association will be helpful to identify the indication of proper management. Therefore, the aim of this study is to identify the above associations by perineal sonography.
Pelvic organ prolapse is a common problem. The primary treatment is surgery. Ischia spinous fascia fixation procedure is developed in China for vaginal apex fixation with native tissue. This study is designed to determine the effectiveness and safety of ischia spinous fascia fixation procedure for the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse stage III. Patients enrolled into the study will be followed up for up to 3 years after surgery. Evaluation will take place during surgery and postoperative visit. Stage of prolapse before and after surgery, patient satisfaction through quality of life and sexual function questionnaires before and after surgery, and peri-operative complication rates will be evaluated.
Pelvic organ prolapse is a common problem. The primary treatment is surgery. Ischia spinous fascia fixation procedure and modified total pelvic floor reconstructive surgery with mesh are both developed in China for vaginal apex fixation, the former is native tissue repairs, and the latter is augmentation with mesh. This study is designed to determine the effectiveness and safety of ischia spinous fascia fixation procedure compared with modified total pelvic floor reconstructive surgery with mesh for the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse stage III. Patients enrolled into the study will be followed up for up to 3 years after surgery. Evaluation will take place during surgery and postoperative visit. Stage of prolapse before and after surgery, patient satisfaction through quality of life and sexual function questionnaires before and after surgery, and peri-operative complication rates will be evaluated.
This is a randomized controlled trial in which women with symptomatic mild pelvic organ prolapse undergoing Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy (PFPT) receive vaginal estrogen versus placebo to see if a combined approach to treatment leads to improvement in clinical outcomes. The investigators predict that PFPT in combination with vaginal estrogen will lead to decreased pelvic floor symptoms and improved anatomical support corroborated by biomarker data.
Using partially absorbed meshes in pelvic reconstructive surgery will involve fewer postoperative complications especially less pain caused by the mesh mass.
The purpose of this study is to prospectively assess the outcomes of robotic sacrocolpopexy for repair of pelvic organ prolapse in high volume european centers.
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common problem. Symptoms of overactive bladder (OAB) are present in approximately 50% of patients with POP. For many women the accompanying symptoms of OAB are an important reason for seeking help for their POP. Surgical repair of prolapse may improve OAB complaints. Persisting or de novo OAB symptoms are strongly correlated with dissatisfaction with the final results of an operation for POP. The primary aim of this research project is to investigate the difference in prevalence (i.e. improvement) of OAB and bothersome OAB symptoms at 6 and 12 months after POP repair surgery. The secondary objectives are to determine changes in bladder function at 6 and 12 months after surgery and to identify predictive factors for persistence, disappearance or de novo symptoms of OAB after POP surgery. Women who present with POP and who will undergo surgical treatment will be evaluated at baseline before their surgery and will be followed for the duration of one year after surgery.
