Filter by:This goal of this study is to determine whether a novel biologic, i.e., an "amniotic suspension allograft" (ASA) will reduce pain and improve quality of life (QoL) in women stricken with chronic pelvic pain (CPP). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Weather pain in the genitalia is reduced with treatment - Weather bladder or urination pain is reduced with treatment - Weather any adverse events occur following treatment Patient responses to pain and QoL will be collected before and 6-12 months after treatment.
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.
Purpose: Pelvic floor is a complex anatomical entity and its neuromuscular assessment is evaluated through electromyography, evoked potentials and pudendal nerve terminal motor latency. An innovative approach is the study of pelvic floor through dynamic transperineal ultrasound (DTU). The aim of this study is to evaluate if anterior and posterior displacement of puborectalis muscle, studied by DTU, is a feasible and effective method to diagnose pudendal neuropathy alternatively to conventional St. Marks' glove. Methods:Patients affected by fecal incontinence (FI) addressed to our referral center of coloproctology at University of Campania were prospectively assessed. After a specialized coloproctology evaluation, each patient with pelviperineal dysfunction was addressed to DTU to determine anterior and posterior displacement of puborectalis muscle, and subsequently a blinded neurophysiologist performed pudendal nerve terminal motor latency assessment to identify pudendal neuropathy. In order to compare the data, a cohort of 34 healthy volunteers was enrolled.
