Clinical Trial Summary

This is an RCT looking at the primary outcome of composite success following anterior repair with native tissue at 6, 12, 24 months in two arms. One arm will be randomised to have a soft silicone pessary inserted into the vagina post operatively for three weeks and the other will not.


Description:

Prolapse of the vagina is a common problem for women and varies from mildly bothersome to very problematic. About one in ten women in the developed world will require surgery for prolapse in their lifetime. The results of surgery are not perfect and some of women will develop prolapse again or not be satisfied with the result.

In this study a soft silicone support (SPOP) is inserted into the vagina straight after prolapse surgery. Women who have agreed to the study will be randomly chosen to have the SPOP at the time of surgery. There will be 120 patients in the study; so 60 women will have the SPOP inserted.

The investigators think that SPOP will support the vagina as it heals, improving the results of surgery. There are already some studies of the SPOP with other surgeries that show improved results. The SPOP is inserted while the patient is sleeping and is removed four weeks after surgery. It is attached with two dissolving stiches to the vagina. After four weeks is will be removed in the out patient clinic without any discomfort. It is not usually painful or uncomfortable at any time.

The actual surgery the women have will not be any different had they not been in the study. All the women in the study will have the normal assessment prior to their operation, and will fill out some questionnaires about their symptoms too. All women involved in the study will come back the clinic to be seen after six months, one year and two years from the date of the surgery. This is regardless of whether they had the SPOP or not. When the women return they will be examined and complete the questionnaires again each visit.

The results of the study will be reported and published.

Intervention

Other:
Surgical Pelvic Organ Pessary
In participants randomized to intervention, the SPOP will be placed at the completion of surgery, following routine placement of IDC and prior to placement of vaginal pack. The SPOP is available in 4 sizes and the surgeon will select the appropriate size so that the SPOP rests snugly without undue tension inside the hymeneal remnant. The SPOP is sutured in place with 2/0 Vicryl to prevent dislodgement at the level of the hymen.
