Filter by:The objective of this this randomized controlled study is to determine whether a pudendal nerve block at the time of vaginal surgery is associated with improved postoperative pain control and decrease opioid consumption compared to a sham pudendal nerve block in patients undergoing vaginal surgery.
Robotic sacrocolpopexy (a procedure for female pelvic organ prolapse) has been demonstrated to have equivalent surgical outcomes to open abdominal sacrocolpopexy and has been previously deemed more cost effective due to the longer hospital course following open procedures. The total cost of these procedures, including all costs of hospitalization as well as costs associated with the 30 days following surgery have previously been evaluated by the investigators. However, previous research is lacking in both the specific cost components that contribute to intraoperative cost of surgery as well as the patient perceived outcomes following these two procedures. This project aims to evaluate the marginal costs of surgery and to survey sacrocolpopexy patients to evaluate their satisfaction with outcomes and surgical scars.
The objective of this is to compare surgical outcomes of anterior colporrhaphy using nonabsorbable sutures with anterior colporrhaphy using absorbable sutures.
Efficacy of laser therapy in postmenopausal women with symptomatic prolapse stage >1. Assessment tools will include prolapse stage quantification system (POP-Q) and validated condition related questionnaires.
We aim to compare the effectiveness of cranberry capsules versus nitrofurantoin prophylaxis in preventing urinary tract infections (UTIs) after urogynecologic surgery by conducting a double-blinded randomized clinical trial involving women with pelvic organ prolapse and/or urinary incontinence scheduled to have surgery with the Urogynecologists who comprise the Brigham and Women's Urogynecology Group.
This prospective randomized pilot study is aimed to verify if the operative time of a standard laparoscopic sacral colpopexy associated to subtotal hysterectomy for the treatment of POP could be further reduced using a continuous locked suture vs. conventional single 5-points suture for anterior mesh fixation.
1. PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of absorbable anchor compared to suturing for mesh attachment to vagina in robotic assisted sacrocolpopexy on the length of surgery for this portion of the procedure. 2. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: i. To assess intraoperative and ii. postoperative complication rates, iii. Intraoperative 10 cm visual analog scale (VAS), to subjectively assess surgeon satisfaction with the technique iv. post-operative Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POPQ) evaluation for anatomic failure and v. a VAS of the vaginal walls overall appearance
The objective of the Preoperative Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POPQ) versus Simulated Apical Support as a Guideline for Anterior or Posterior Repair at the Time of Transvaginal Apical Suspension (PREPARE) trial is to compare surgical outcomes of POPQ-based surgery with simulated apical support-based surgery for anterior or posterior vaginal wall prolapse at the time of transvaginal apical suspension.
To date no study has determined prospectively which technique is superior to prevent recurrent Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) after vaginal hysterectomy- a major unmet clinical need. The aim of the study is to determine objective anatomical recurrent prolapse after Sacrospinous Ligament Fixation (SLF) vs McCall.
Pelvic organ prolapse, POP, is a common health problem affecting up to 40% of women. Very little is known about the factors associated with surgical failure. Studies have identified a variety of risk factors: younger age, high body mass index and advanced preoperative prolapse (grade III-IV) have been associated with an increased risk of reoperation in some studies. According to some studies patients had poorer anatomical outcome after traditional repairs but were able to enjoy the same quality of life as after transvaginal mesh surgery or laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy. The purpose of this study is to assess and compare the efficacy of these three procedures in a randomized controlled trial.
