Filter by:The childbirth is one of the risk factors for pelvic organ prolapse. In order to prevent the pelvic organ prolapse, the physicians do not routinely advice any exercises after deliveries. The investigators wondered if the mode of deliveries such as ceserean section, vaginal route delivery with episiotomy or vaginal route delivery without episiotomy effect the pelvic floor function differently or not. In order to evaluate this, the investigators are planning to measure the muscle tonus in primiparous women.
Prolapse is a pathology that can cause pelvic, urinary or sexual functional disorders and impaired quality of life. Although the use of vaginal mesh is a commonly practiced technique to correct prolapse, in recent years health officials have pointed to the lack of adequate safety and tolerability assessments of these implants. Currently, surgeons are therefore moving towards techniques without implants. The standard vaginal technique for the treatment of uterine prolapse is sacrospinofixation according to Richter. This technique can be performed without an implant, using autologous tissue. Functional discomfort of patients is the main problem linked to the presence of prolapse. However, no study has yet evaluated the feelings of patients following the use of this sacrospinofixation technique by autologous tissues by vaginal route, which led us to set up this study. The hypothesis is that the technique of anterior sacrospinofixation by autologous tissues improves the symptoms experienced by patients with an mid-level and / or anterior genital prolapse.
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.
