Filter by:Pessary self-management is defined as the patient's ability to remove and reinsert their pessary themselves at home. Previous research has suggested that some women may prefer being able to remove and reinsert their pessary as they wish rather than wait for clinic appointments. At the moment, not enough is known about pessary self-management, particularly what makes someone more or less likely to try pessary self-management. The investigators would like to understand this better to try to help women overcome barriers they might face. This study aims to collect data via both questionnaires and interviews to explore willingness to self-manage a pessary. Using findings from the questionnaires and interviews, a group of women who use pessaries and healthcare professionals who provide pessary care will work together to develop a better way to support women to feel able and willing to manage their pessary in future.
To determine whether a pre-operative educational video has an impact on the anxiety of patients undergoing vaginal prolapse surgery
The purpose of this study is to assess whether the transversus abdominis plane block (Tap block) is different than the oral postoperative pain medications in controlling pain after robotic sacrocolpopexy.
Post-hysterectomy vaginal vault prolapse is a common pelvic floor disorder described as descent of the vaginal apex after hysterectomy. The incidence of post-hysterectomy vault prolapse has been reported to follow 11.6% of hysterectomies performed for prolapse and 1.8% for other benign diseases. The majority of surgical repairs to correct post-hysterectomy vault prolapse are approached via a transvaginal route. A common transvaginal procedure to correct vaginal vault prolapse is the uterosacral ligament suspension. Traditionally, the uterosacral ligaments have been accessed intraperitoneally to perform the vaginal suspension. More recently, an extraperitoneal approach has been utilized with good results. There is limited evidence comparing the the two approaches. Thus, the objectives of this study are to compare compare operative time, hospital stay, cost, surgical success, and other perioperative outcomes between the two approaches.
The aim of the study is to assess at one year the effectiveness of the vaginal patch plastron in comparison of the anterior colporraphy through a combined definition of success: anatomic and functional.
