Filter by:The goal of this prospective study is to investigate the sexual function and quality of life of women undergoing loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) due to HPV-related cervical lesion. The main question it aims to answer are: - Whether LEEP affects the sexual function of women in comparison to untreated women, and - Whether LEEP affects the health-related quality of life of women in comparison to untreated women Participants are asked to complete web based an international validated self-report questionnaire on sexual function issues, the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), and a validated quality of life -questionnaire 15D at the time of first colposcopy appointment and six and 24 months, 3 years and 5 years after index visit (LEEP or first colposcopy in control group). Relevant additional background information is also collected via questionnaire and from patient files. Researchers will compare women with LEEP and those with only colposcopy visits to see any differences between self-reported sexual function (FSFI scores) or health-related quality of life (15D scores) both short and long-term.
Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers in women and one of the leading causes of death in women worldwide. Pre-cancerous lesions (dysplasias) are detected by the preventive smear test at the gynecologist and can thus contribute to a 100% chance of cure if they are clarified by a colposcopic examination as part of the dysplasia consultation and dysplastic lesions are then surgically removed if necessary (conization). There are few data in the literature on the influence of the menstrual cycle on the bleeding pattern during and after conization. Hormonal variations during the menstrual cycle affect both the extent of blood flow to reproductive organs and hemostasis. In the follicular phase, there is a decrease in local blood flow in the uterus and pelvic organs and an increase in coagulability. Conversely, in the luteal phase there is an increase in local blood supply and a decrease in coagulability. Therefore, it seems reasonable to perform conization in the follicular phase to possibly reduce the extent and incidence of bleeding and bleeding complications. This assumption is supported by clinical observations. For example, there is evidence from other specialties that selection of the timing of surgery, taking into account the menstrual phase, may influence the risk of bleeding. Another factor of interest in menstruation-based surgical planning is psychological vulnerability, which may also vary with the menstrual cycle. Until now, consideration of the menstrual cycle in surgical planning for conization has not been standard practice and there is no recommendation in this regard in the current S3 guideline of the German Society of Gynecology and Obstetrics. Therefore, this study now aims to answer the question under prospective randomized conditions whether LLETZ conization performed during the follicular phase results in lower blood loss and higher patient satisfaction and lower anxiety scores compared to LLETZ conization performed during the luteal phase.
WE DECIDED TO COMPARE TWO DIFFERENT ELECTROSURGERY DEVİCES TO PROVIDE COLPOTOMY. ONE OF THEM İS MONOPOLAR HOOC, THE OTHER DEVİCE İS PLASMAKİNETİC BİPOLAR SPATULA. WE WİLL RANDOMİSE PATİENTS FİRSTLY THEN COMPARE THE RESULTS SUCH, VAGİNAL DEHİSSENS, COLPOTOMY DURATİON, AMOUNT OF MIST DURING COLPOTOMY, AMOUNT OF BLEEDİNG.
This study will pilot production and evaluate the use of reminder information in women invited for cervical screening for the first time within the GGC eligible population for cervical screening. Women aged under 30 years will be identified to receive an SMS text message following their cervical screening invitation using information from the CHI Broadcast.
In Singapore, the current cervical cancer screening uptake among women in Singapore has remained at low 50% since its introduction in 2004. It has been widely reported that under-screened women have the highest risk of cervical cancer. Self-sampling HPV DNA screening may be a solution to the low uptake rates of local women, particularly among the under-screened population in Singapore. Self-sampling comprises women using a swab to obtain samples from their vagina. In this study, we are comparing the sensitivity of detecting HPV positive women using HPV DNA test with self-sampling using flocked swab with the current physician sampling method. We also aim to determine acceptability of self-sampling HPV DNA test using flocked swab in cervical cancer screening. Designed as a feasibility study, it will comprise a prospective study of 300 women attending clinics in National University Hospital (NUH) and National Cancer Institute Singapore (NCIS).
