Filter by:Transvaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES) is a recent innovation in minimally invasive surgery which has already proven its non-inferiority to conventional abdominal laparoscopy (CAL) for hysterectomy in terms of efficiency and safety. However, the investigators note a lack of medical literature and no specific randomized controlled trial (RCT) assessing women's sexual function after vNOTES for benign adnexal surgery. The aim of this RCT is to confirm the non-inferiority of the vNOTES approach for benign adnexal pathology compared to CAL on women's sexual function. Secondary outcomes will evaluate vNOTES's efficiency, morbidity and postoperative complications compared to CAL for benign adnexal surgery. The relationship between adnexal mass morcellation/aspiration and the quality of the histological analysis on surgical specimens will also be evaluated as secondary outcome.
The primary aims of this research are three folds: (1) To identify more relatively effective interventions for improving pain symptoms in CP/CPPS patients. (2) To ascertain the correlation between PFM elastic modulus and tenderness symptoms. This may find a more objective method of assessing efficacy. (3) To determine the correlation between the intensity of the sympathetic response and the patient's symptoms and to explore other possible pathogenetic mechanisms.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of using the Hyivy device on overall self-reported pelvic pain in people with endometriosis
A large percentage of women suffer low back and pelvic pain both during and after pregnancy. There are several factors to which these complaints are attributed, even affecting their daily lives. It is identified that many of these women do not receive adequate health care, however, different physiotherapeutic interventions are recommended to alleviate these conditions, presenting moderate levels of evidence. Virtual reality (VR) is presented as a complementary and promising treatment method to physiotherapy for the improvement of fundamental variables such as perceived pain and pain avoidance. The main objective is to evaluate the efficacy of a combined VR and physiotherapy program of 4 weeks duration compared to a standard physiotherapy intervention in pregnant women with low back pain and pelvic pain for the improvement of pain avoidance, pain intensity, disability and functional level. As a secondary objective the investigators propose to investigate patient satisfaction with the VR intervention. This research will be carried out by means of a multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial in pregnant patients residing in the provinces of Seville and Malaga with a diagnosis of low back pain and pelvic pain during pregnancy. The alternative hypothesis of this research is that the implementation of a Virtual Reality program together with standard physiotherapy in pregnant patients with low back and pelvic pain presents better clinical results obtained with the current standard intervention, which may represent an opportunity to define new policies and interventions for these pathologies and their consequences.
The investigators aim from this study, to determine the safety and efficacy of pulsed radiofrequency in the management of pudendal neuralgia, compared to current a standard intervention, which is corticosteroid injection for PN, as part of multidisciplinary pain management.
This is a single-center prospective cohort study sponsored by the University Hospitals Leuven (UZ). Women will undergo a pelvic floor ultrasound and will be asked to fill out a questionnaire at the time of their admission into the labour suite, at the postpartum check-up and 12 months postpartum. The primary objective is to correlate self-reported symptoms of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction (PFD) (binary outcome) at one year after delivery with structural changes to the Pelvic Floor Muscles (PFM) and postpartum evidence of levator avulsion (binary indicator) as measured by TransPerineal UltraSound (TPUS). Secondary objectives are to compare demographical and obstetrical variables between patients suffering from PFD symptoms or pelvic floor injury (documented one year after delivery) and those who do not; to record how patients manage and cope with PFD including recovery and compliance with Pelvic Floor Muscle Training (PFMT) as prescribed in the standard pathway of peripartum care; and to use of TPUS images for the development of artificial intelligence tools for automated image analysis. Primary outcomes are PFD symptoms one year after delivery and injury to the PFM evidenced by POP-Q and TPUS. The demographic variables and information about the pregnancy and the delivery will be obtained from the medical records. The presence and severity of PFD will be measured using standardized self-reporting tools: Pelvic Organ Prolapse Distress Index (POP-DI), Patient Assessment Constipation-SYMptoms (PAC-SYM), International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Urinary Incontinence - Short Form (ICIQ-SF), St. Mark's Incontinence Score (SMIS), Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), Female Sexual Distress Scale - Revised (FSDS-R). FSFI is a widely used generic tool with sufficient granularity and validated in a large number of languages. FSDS-R assesses the construct "personal distress", which has been considered as an additional important aspect contributing to sexual dysfunction of women. PFD, as a clustered outcome, being the presence of any kind of pelvic floor dysfunction symptoms, will be defined as POP-DI score of ≥11 OR ICIQ-SF score of ≥1 OR SMIS score of ≥1 OR FSFI score ≤ 26.55 OR FSDS-R score ≥11.
Prospective observational assessment of the efficacy of Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) treatment in patients with neuropathic pelvic pain.
The aim of the study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of LiST retreatment for CP/CPPS patients.A total of 50 patients with CP/CPPS diagnosis who were previously treated with 6 sessions of LiST will participate in this study.The primary study parameter is the CP/CPPS-related pain complaints and it will be assessed by the NIH-CPSI
When vessel wall injury occurs, platelets become activated, releasing more than 30 bioactive proteins, many of which have a fundamental role in hemostasis, inflammation and ultimate wound healing. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a modification of fibrin glue made from autologous blood, is being used to deliver growth factors in high concentration to sites requiring wound healing. PRP is obtained from a sample of patients' blood drawn at the time of treatment. As the rate of cesarean deliveries has been rising, long-term adverse sequelae due to uterine scar defects have been increasing. PRP might be a simple preventive treatment that potentially can reduce morbidity following cesarean deliveries.
This study will be a randomized controlled trial. This study will be conducted in Civil Hospital, Hassan Abdal. A sample size of 32 patients will be taken. Patients will be divided into two groups by lottery method. Group A will be treated with hot pack followed by Manual Lymphatic Drainage while Group B will be given home based plan of hot pack application only. Both groups will receive treatment for 4 weeks,2 sessions per week. The outcome measures Numeric pain rating scale(NPRS), QOL-GRAV and Oswestry Disability Index for back. Data will be analyzed by SPSS 21.
