In the past, the impact of pessaries was mostly assessed by questionnaires on Quality of Life (QoL) and sexual dysfunction. This research project primarily aims to objectify the effects of the currently available pessaries in a different way. To accomplish this, the investigators choose transperineal ultrasound and uroflowmetry. Additionally, this project aims to describe the impact of pessaries on the symptoms and QoL.
This is a prospective cohort study designed to investigate the impact of home caregiver support on post-operative convalescence in patients undergoing same day discharge after major urogynecologic surgery. Questionnaires assessing post-operative convalescence will be distributed at several time points after surgery. The main hypothesis is that increased caregiver support in the post-operative period will improve post-operative convalescence of patients undergoing major urogynecologic surgery.
Postoperative Results of a Meshless Method in the Surgical Treatment of Pelvic Organ Prolapse; Combination of Laparoscopic Uterosacral Ligament and Round Ligament Plication.
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is the descent of pelvic organs into the vagina resulting in bulge symptoms and occurs in approximately 50% of women. Almost 20% of women will elect surgical correction of this condition by age 85. Removal of the uterus (hysterectomy) with concomitant vaginal vault suspension is a longstanding practice in POP surgery to address apical (uterine) prolapse. Yet, contemporary evidence on the merits of this approach relative to preservation of the uterus through suspension is needed to better inform surgical decision-making by patients and their healthcare providers. The objective of this trial is to evaluate POP-specific health outcomes and service utilization of women electing uterine suspension compared to those electing hysterectomy and vaginal vault suspension for POP surgery up to 1-year post-surgery.
Prolapse is a condition that causes up to 13% of women to have surgery in their lifetime. There are many surgical techniques for the treatment of prolapse, each with its advantages and disadvantages. The techniques by vaginal approach aim to put back in tension the supporting tissue, the endopelvic fascia, damaged and released. This technique has the advantage of not causing an abdominal scar, a quick recovery and often little pain. In contrast, the use of already damaged native tissue results in a recurrence rate of up to 15% to 30%. The other technique is the abdominal route either by laparotomy or by a minimally invasive approach such as laparoscopy, assisted or not by robotics. With this technique, we use prosthetic material introduced around the vaginal wall without opening the latter, therefore without contamination and without dissection of the vaginal wall. During upper surgery, a subtotal hysterectomy is performed, that is to say that the uterine cervix is preserved and serves as an anchoring point for the synthetic nets which are attached to the cervix and then sutured to the promontory of the sacrum. (sacrocervicopexy). In the vaginal route, a total hysterectomy is traditionally performed and the vaginal dome is sutured to the sacro-spinal ligament (Richter's operation). The stitches are then passed through the thickness of the often thin vaginal wall constituting a possible release point of the assembly. There are currently no studies that compare prosthetic sacrocervicopexy with fixation of the remaining cervix to the sacro-spinal ligament without prosthesis, and repair of the endopelvic fascia with native tissue. The study consists of performing a subtotal hysterectomy by minimally invasive approach in both cases and then randomize for either a prosthetic sacrocervicopexy or fixation of the remaining cervix to the sacro-spinal ligament via the abdominal or vaginal route.
This study evaluates post-operative pain between different insufflation pressures during robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy. Subjective pain and narcotic usage after surgery will be measured.
Aim To compare the effectiveness of the application of non-ablative radiofrequency (RF) applied in combination with the usual treatment for the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) versus the usual treatment in lowering its severity. The secondary objective is to compare the effectiveness of both interventions in the symptoms most commonly associated with POP (pelvic heaviness, bulging, and prolapse-related lumbar pain). Design Randomized, double-blind clinical trial. Women between 18 and 75 years old with symptoms of vaginal prolapse, defined as "sensation of mass or lump" and / or "sensation of dragging in the vagina", and who also have the presence of POP diagnosed under clinical criteria and quantified using simplified POP-Q assessment. All women with asymptomatic vaginal prolapse grade IV or less than GI of the cervix or less than or equal to GI of the anterior and / or posterior vaginal Wall (asymptomatic); presence of more than one vaginal prolapse, and also those women with chronic connective tissue diseases or who present some type of contraindication to the application of RF therapy, will be excluded from the study Methods The study will include 20 women in the intervention group and 20 women in the control group. The women will be recruited from the patients who attend the Ketty Ruiz Pelviperineal Physiotherapy Clinic, which it´s specialized in treating pelvic floor dysfunctions. Interventions The usual intervention will be applied to both groups of the study. It will consist of supervised individualized sessions (up to a maximum of 8 sessions) by physiotherapists who are part of the research team. They will include the application of exercises to balance the pelvis and the muscles related to it, treatment of the trigger points detected through the application of manual and / or instrumental techniques, teaching of the activation of the transverse abdominis with ultrasound biofeedback and teaching of reflex activation exercises of the transverse abdominis and pelvic floor muscles in different body positions. The RF will be administered during the exercises of reflex activation of transversus abdominis and pelvic floor muscles on a stretcher (supine position). It will be applied intracavitary, in monopolar application, reaching a temperature between 42-45ºC in the tissues (according to the patient's tolerance), and with a power of 50% until the desired temperature is reached. It will be applied with a frequency that will be individualized according to the maximum level of energy absorption by the patient's tissues (between 0.8-1.2MHz) and with a dose of approximately between 3-4 KJ depending on the application time (20 minutes / session). In addition, they will be applied 1 session per week. The treatment will last 8 weeks. The application of RF in the control group will follow the same application procedure as in the intervention group, but in this case, no type of parameter is applied to the RF device, ie, the device remains off for the entire duration of the session. Variables: For the measurement of the main variable of the study, the simplified POP-Q will be used, considered the "gold standard" for the classification of POP. To measure the secondary variables of the study, the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Symptom Score (POP-SS) questionnaire will be used to assess the symptoms of pelvic bulging and / or heaviness; a visual analog scale (VAS) for the intensity of lumbar pain related to prolapse, the Prolapse Quality of Life (P-QOL) questionnaire for measuring the quality of life related to vaginal prolapse and finally structured interviews will be conducted with all study subjects throughout the duration of the study to assess the safety of the intervention The immediate effect (ie, at the end of the 1st treatment session) in the quantitative assessment of prolapse and the short-term effects (i.e. 1 week after the last face-to-face treatment session) and medium (at 3 and 6 months after end of treatment) and long-term effects (at 12 months after finishing treatment) in all study variables will be evaluated. Statistical analysis and ethical aspects It will be carried out using the SPSS 25.0 statistical package. This project is in process of being approved by the Research Ethics Committee (CEI) of the Balearic Islands (IB 4459/21 PS).
This study aims to compare safety, efficacy and complications of modified Purandare's cervicopexy with abdominal sacral hysteropexy as conservative surgery in the treatment of genital prolapse in reproductive age group patients at Ain Shams Maternity hospital.
The aim of the current study is to compare abdominal sacral cervicopexy with vaginal sacrospinous cervicopexy in women with apical prolapse in terms of operative time, procedures safety and efficacy.
