Filter by:The aim of our study is to examine the effect of prolapse surgery on voiding. Our study is the very first one to combine several innovative low-invasive and low-cost methods to analyse the amelioration or deterioration of voiding function after surgery for pelvic organ prolapse using 3D/4D translabial ultrasound, home-uroflowmetry and patient reported quality of life outcomes.
The objective of the study is to retrospectively collect the data on patients who underwent pelvic organ prolapse treatment using a non-ablative Er:YAG laser with SMOOTH mode and to conduct an objective evaluation of safety and efficacy of Er:YAG laser treatment. In a group of patients that have concomitant stress urinary incontinence symptoms, the effectiveness of the treatments on these symptoms will be evaluated as well.
To get the impact of pelvic floor reconstruction surgery on lower urinary tract symptoms, psychological distress and sexual function.
Sjogren's syndrome (SS) is a chronic, systemic, autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of all exocrine glands, especially tear and salivary glands, and is more common in women.
The primary purpose of this two-arm randomized clinical trial is to determine if in women desiring use of a pessary for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and are successfully fit, if 1-year use and patient impression of improvement is superior in women using vaginal estrogen cream versus those using a vaginal placebo cream.
An institutional audit of the short term complications and long term outcomes of patients undergoing laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for vault/cervical prolapse.
To evaluate how patient knowledge and confidence in decision making can be impacted by shared decision making in common urogynecology conditions.
This randomized controlled study is designed to test the non inferiority of no attachment of posterior mesh compared to fixation of posterior mesh to the vagina in laparoscopic sacral colpopexy in terms of anatomical correction of the prolapse, post-operative and long term morbidity and rate of recurrence.
Introduction and Hypothesis: Vaginally assisted laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (VALS), which is a combined surgical approach where a vaginal hysterectomy is initially performed, followed by transvaginal placement of synthetic mesh and laparoscopic suspension, can be an alternative to overcome the dissection, suturing limitations of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy. The aim of this study was to compare the middle term anatomic outcomes, complication rates, and operative times of patients with uterovaginal prolapse undergoing VALS with those of women undergoing abdominal sacrocolpopexy. Methods: This is a prospective cohort study that evaluates operation times, anesthesia times, estimated blood loss, middle term outcomes, perioperative and postoperative complications. We compared the results of 47 women who had the VALS to that of 32 abdominal sacrocolpopexy.
The objective of the EVeRLAST study is to determine whether expedited resumption of postoperative activity levels is non-inferior to standard activity restrictions with respect to short-term anatomic prolapse outcomes. We hypothesize that immediate resumption of physical activities as tolerated will result in noninferior surgical outcomes following prolapse surgery when compared to standard postoperative activity restrictions. Participants will be enrolled and randomized at their preoperative clinic visit to one of two treatment arms: Arm 1: Standard instructions (no heavy lifting over 10lbs for 6 weeks; return to work at 4 weeks for sedentary work and 6 weeks for manual labor) Arm 2: Liberal instructions (no restrictions; resume activities and work as soon as able) We will also collect subjective and objective measures of pre- and postoperative physical activity, through the use of patient-reported physical activity assessments and wrist-worn accelerometers. Accelerometer data will be collected at the preoperative, 2-week-postoperative, and 6-week-postoperative time points. Accelerometer data will also be used to calculate time to resumption of normal activities, defined as time at which a patient resumes greater than 90% of her baseline preoperative level of physical activity. We will additionally be collecting data on relevant patient-reported outcomes of pelvic floor symptom severity, health-related quality of life measures, postoperative pain, time to return to work (where relevant), and patient global impression of improvement. Postoperative anatomic assessments will be performed at 6 weeks and 3 months postoperatively by blinded study personnel
