Cuff clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Prevention of Vaginal Cellulitis or Vaginal Cuff Abscess After Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

Start date: May 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Operative site infection remains the most common complication after performing a gynecological procedure, and has a great implication in the morbidity and mortality of patients. Gynecological procedures, including laparoscopic hysterectomy, represent a unique challenge due to the amount of microorganisms found at the skin level of the vagina or the endocervix. However, there is no clear evidence that the complication decreases with the use of postoperative antibiotics. With the completion of this study, a multicentre triple-blind controlled randomized controlled trial is intended to determine the behavior of the application of this intervention. Patients who attend an outpatient clinic with benign pathology will be selected, in which indication of laparoscopic hysterectomy, consents are completed and research content is widely explained. Prior to surgery, the sample is taken for a gram of vaginal discharge and in the post-surgical phase delivery of the medication will be performed. Follow-up will be carried out by surgical control and by telephone. The investigator intend to find that with the prophylaxis not only of presurgical cephalosporin, but with the formulation of metronidazole ovules in the postoperative, the incidence of laparoscopic post-hysterectomy vaginal abscess and cellulitis of cuff is reduced.
