Clinical Trial Summary

Pubovaginal sling (PVS) procedures are designed to curtail bladder leakage brought about by strenuous events such as child birth. A common purported side effect of PVS is urgency, the feeling of a compelling need to void with little warning. Other overactive bladder (OAB) adverse effects that some claim to develop post-op include further leakage (incontinence), frequency and nocturia (night time leakage). Anecdotal evidence from our clinic however, suggests that such de novo OAB symptoms are rarely induced by PVS, and may in fact be alleviated by said procedure. It is our aim to investigate this relationship in our clinic.

As a prospective member of this study, you will be asked to complete five surveys. The first survey will be administered prior to your pubovaginal sling. This will be used to establish your baseline experience of OAB. Over the course of the next year, you will be asked to complete the four remaining surveys at regularly scheduled check-ups.

Study Design

Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment


Intervention

Device:
Pubovaginal sling procedure
The procedure involves placing a band of sling material directly under the bladder neck (ie, proximal urethra) or mid-urethra, which acts as a physical support to prevent bladder neck and urethral descent during physical activity. The sling also may augment the resting urethral closure pressure with increases in intra-abdominal pressure.
