Filter by:The LIFT study will document the first clinical use of the ZiftLift Tissue Anchor in a browlift for patients with age-related brow ptosis. It is a single arm, open label multicenter study, to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Zift Lift System. Up to 20 subjects in up to 3 sites will be enrolled in this study. Data from this trial will be used to confirm the device safety and efficacy and provide inputs to further refine the device design and procedure technique for future device iterations
Interventional , multicenter , comparative study. One eye receiving the cells and the contralateral eye as a negative control . If effectiveness following review of the primary endpoint and the advice of an independent expert committee , the experimental treatment will be offered to the patient to the contralateral eyelid. Objective is to restore muscle function levator muscle of the upper eyelid by providing a registry of autologous myoblasts from a non- clinically affected muscle .
The primary aim of this study is to determine if normal bladder function (the ability to empty the bladder during spontaneous urination) after surgical repair of pelvic organ prolapse returns faster in patients who have a retrograde voiding trial the day of surgery versus patients who have a retrograde voiding trial on postoperative day one. Half of participants will have a voiding trial 4 hours after surgery, while the other half will have the voiding trial postoperative day one.
The purpose of this study is to compare safety and effectiveness of the Exair Prolapse Repair System for treatment of pelvic organ prolapse to traditional native tissue repair through 36 months of follow-up.
The aim of this study is to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Elevate® Apical and Posterior Prolapse Repair System for repair of apical/posterior pelvic organ prolapse in a controlled, post-market cohort study.
The aim of this study is to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Elevate® Anterior and Apical Prolapse Repair System for repair of anterior/apical pelvic organ prolapse in a controlled, post-market cohort study.
Our primary aim in the current study is to determine important tissue differences, including muscle and connective tissue changes, between postmenopausal women and reproductive age women with pelvic floor dysfunction to help develop targeted and noninvasive treatments.
To monitor post-market performance through evaluation of short and long-term performance via: - Efficacy - Safety - Patient reported outcomes
Background: Rectal prolapse (RP) is the descent of the upper rectum and is a common problem in the western world. Surgery is the only definite treatment and is preferably performed minimally invasive. High-level prospective studies on treatment strategies for RP currently are lacking and, thus, no consensus exist regarding the optimal treatment for patients with RP. Furthermore, remarkable transatlantic differences exist, as in Europe, laparoscopic ventral rectopexy (LVR) is regarded the treatment of choice, while in the USA Laparoscopic Resection Rectopexy (LRR) remains the golden standard. Objective: To determine the optimal minimally invasive surgical treatment for patients with RP. Design: International, prospective, comparative double cohort study. The first cohort will consist of 120 European patients with a RP and will be treated with LVR. Centres in The Netherlands, Belgium and the UK are enlisted for participation. The second cohort will consist of 120 American patients with a RP, treated with LRR. Several US centres are enlisted. Preoperative work-up consists of radiological imaging and standardised questionnaires. Follow-up (FU) is set on two years. During FU, pre-operative imaging and questionnaires will be repeated. Primary & secondary outcomes: Primary endpoint will be improvement on the Gastro-Intestinal-Quality-of-Life-Index (GIQLI). Secondary endpoints will be generic Quality-of-Life, functional results, morbidity, mortality, recurrences and cost-effectiveness. Time frame: Study and inclusion start will be on January the 1st, 2011 and will take approximately 18-24 months. Therefore, total study duration will be 42-48 months.
Investigators intend to conduct a prospective randomized trial to compare vaginal hysterectomy with uterosacral colposuspension to laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy with sacrocervicopexy. Both surgeries are minimally-invasive surgical standards of care for uterine prolapse repair. Nobody knows if one procedure is superior to the other, as they have not been compared directly. The investigators hypothesize that there is no difference in objective, subjective, or cost-effectiveness between the two procedures for up to two years after surgery.
