Filter by:Definition: To find out complications, objective and subjective outcomes of patients with symptomatic posterior vaginal wall prolapse undergoing posterior mesh operation in nine Finnish hospitals during September 2010 and August 2013. The study hypothesis is that complications are acceptable and both objective and subjective outcomes are satisfying.
To perform a clinical safety and efficacy assessment of the Uphold LITE system for pelvic organ prolapse in a prospective multicenter, single cohort study.
The lifetime risk for a woman to undergo surgery for either vaginal prolapse or urinary incontinence is high. Previous studies have shown that pregnancy and childbirth are risk factors for developing prolapse. There is a lack of studies that follow women several years after delivery aiming to find whether symptoms of prolapse are linked to delivery method, ie vacuum, forceps, normal vaginal delivery and cesarean section. The investigators plan this study is to get more knowledge about pathology of prolapse and incontinence, to enable development of preventive strategies for these conditions. Aim of the study is to determine whether the prevalence of symptoms and performed surgery for urogenital prolapse differs among women delivered by vacuum, forceps, normal vaginal delivery and cesarean section 15-20 years after their first delivery. The investigators identify women that delivered their first child at St. Olavs Hospital, Trondheim, Norway between 1990-1997. Questionnaires will be sent to 2500 women (PFIQ-7, PFDI-20, PISQ-12), 600 of whom will get a clinical examination, where pelvic floor musculature is examined by palpation and 4D ultrasound, and a POP-Q quantification of prolapse performed.
The study compares the effect of bilateral salpingectomy associated with conservative hysterectomy on ovarian function to the standard hysterectomy with conservation of both ovaries and tubes in terms of hormone assays, ovarian ultrasound evaluation, complications, quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate outcomes in patients having vaginal prolapse repair with the Elevate prolapse repair kit and compare these outcomes to patients who had a repair with Prolift. .
The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of Anterior Pelvic Prolapse Reconstruction with a titanised polypropylene mesh on rate of erosion and patients quality of live.
The objective of this study is to evaluate surgical treatment of anterior vaginal wall prolapse using the sis graft or traditional repair. This a randomized and prospective study. Clinical patterns that will be evaluated: anatomic results of surgery; impact of surgery in quality of life using the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Questionnaire (P-QoL), sexual function with FSFI and possible complications.
Chart review conducted on all patients having had Prolift surgery since 2005 by Dr. Lary Sirls, Dr. Predeep Nagaraju and Dr. Kenneth Peters at William Beaumont Hospital.
This research protocol is a randomized controlled trial. It is being done to compare and find out the relative differences between the materials, (Pelivisoft) "natural organic mesh" to poly propylene mesh (Pelvitex) "manmade mesh" after a surgery known as sacral colpopexy. This surgery involves supporting the prolapsed vaginal wall with a piece of material (known as a graft) attached to a ligament along your backbone (or sacrum). These materials are both FDA approved and widely used. The following objectives: anatomic outcomes, graft-related complications between the two materials, changes in pelvic organ prolapse-related quality of life, subjective changes in sexual function,changes in bowel function and the prolapse related pain present after sacral colpopexy will be evaluated. The study visits are all under standard of care. Study questionnaires are unique to the study and will be completed at the enrollment in hospital, 2, 6,12 weeks, 6 months and one year visits The questionnaires are related to bowel function, bladder function, prolapse and sexual activity. Permission will be requested to contact the patient again 5 years after surgery. Contact in the future will in no way obligate the patient to participate. There may or may not be direct medical benefits to the participant. Decreased risk of erosion may be a possible benefit if placed in the organic "natural" arm of the study. The information learned from this study may benefit other patients in the future
The primary aim of this double-blind, randomized clinical trial (RCT) is to test the hypothesis that the addition of a standardized technique of interpositional synthetic polypropylene mesh placement improves the one-year outcome of vaginal reconstructive surgery for anterior prolapse compared to traditional vaginal reconstructive surgery without mesh.
