Quality of Life Clinical Trial
Official title:
Assessment of Women's Sexual Quality of Life After Benign Adnexal Surgery Using vNOTES Approach in Comparison to Conventional Laparoscopy: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Transvaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES) is a recent innovation in minimally invasive surgery which has already proven its non-inferiority to conventional abdominal laparoscopy (CAL) for hysterectomy in terms of efficiency and safety. However, the investigators note a lack of medical literature and no specific randomized controlled trial (RCT) assessing women's sexual function after vNOTES for benign adnexal surgery. The aim of this RCT is to confirm the non-inferiority of the vNOTES approach for benign adnexal pathology compared to CAL on women's sexual function. Secondary outcomes will evaluate vNOTES's efficiency, morbidity and postoperative complications compared to CAL for benign adnexal surgery. The relationship between adnexal mass morcellation/aspiration and the quality of the histological analysis on surgical specimens will also be evaluated as secondary outcome.

Primary | Women's quality of sexual life evaluation - Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) | Women's sexual Quality of Life evaluation after benigne adnexal surgery by vNOTES compared to Conventional Abdominal Laparoscopy using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) questionnaire.
FSFI, created in 2000 by Raymond Rosen, is a reliable and complete multidimensional self-reported instrument for the measurement of female sexual function. It is validated in English and assesses 19 items divided into six domains of sexual function: (a) desire (2 items), (b) subjective arousal (4 items), (c) lubrication (4 items), (d) orgasm (3 items), (e) satisfaction (3 items) and (f) pain/discomfort (3 items). Each item focuses on the situation during the last 4 weeks. The total score is the sum of answers provided for each of the 6 domains. Lower is the score, worse is the patient's sexual function. A total score below 26 defines impaired sexual function. |

CSI-16 is a precise, consistent and validated scale that evaluates the quality of a couple's relationship satisfaction. Each item is scored from 0 to 5 with different answer formats. The total score can range from 0 to 81. Higher is the total score, better is the relationship satisfaction. A relationship dissatisfaction is suggested when the total score is bellow 51,5. |
