Filter by:Patients aged 45 to 80 years with a clinical diagnosis of stage III and IV genital prolapse involving the anterior and/or middle compartments and candidates for surgery will be considered. These will be evaluated to observe whether there is improvement in clinical prolapse with the use of the vaginal pessary during the waiting period for surgery
The aim of this prospective study is investigation of efficiency and safety of medical device "Magic Gyno" in accordance with the stated purpose. To assess the condition of the vaginal walls and vulva before and after laser treatment, the following methods will be used: gynecology examination, vaginal health index, clinical blood test, vaginal flora examination, vaginal pH. International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form (ICIQ-SF), Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and The Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) will be used to collect feedback on changes in the participants life quality. Total up to 70 participants with pathology of pelvic organs will be involved in the study. Participants will be divided into two groups: group with genitourinary symptoms and group with vaginal relaxation symptoms, by 35 participants in each. The time intervals between tests will be the same for both groups. The main hypothesis of the study is improvement in condition of the vaginal walls after laser treatment compared with the condition before treatment.
The anterior vaginal wall is the segment most commonly affected by prolapse. Traditionally, anterior vaginal wall prolapse is repaired via anterior colporrhaphy (native tissue repair), which is known to have a high recurrence rate. Several factors like the suture plication method might affect the outcome of anterior colporrhaphy. The use of single button sutures for example might be associated with the high recurrence rate because the sutures might not be able to retain adequate strength. Nonetheless, no comparative data exist so far regarding the efficacy and safety of anterior colporrhaphy when analyzing the plication method of sutures (= comparison between continuous stiches versus simple interrupted stiches). The objective of this study is to compare the of patients undergoing anterior colporrhaphy due to symptomatic POP - using either continuous stiches or simple interrupted stiches. This is a randomized, single-center, superiority trial. Anterior colporrhaphy will be performed in a traditional standardized manner in accordance with the policy of our institution. After midline incision and preparation of vesicovaginal fascia, midline plication of the fibromuscular layer is performed. Patients are randomized either to the group receiving continuous sutures or to the group with simple interrupted stitches. The primary outcome of interest is subjective symptom improvement (evaluated by German version of the pelvic floor questionnaire) assessed at 6 and 12 months after surgery. Secondary outcome variables include anatomical outcomes, condition-specific quality of life and adverse events related to anterior colporrhaphy. Due to the power calculation, an estimated and planned number of participants is 40.
The aim of study is characteristic of changes in the vaginal wall after treatment of neodymium laser radiation with a wavelength of 1064 nm. To assess the condition of the vaginal walls before and after laser treatment, the following methods will be used: vaginal health index, perineometry, measurement of the vaginal wall thickness by ultrasound, Doppler sonography of the vaginal walls vessels, optical coherence tomography, biopsy, cytological and immunocytochemical methods. The King's Health Questionnaire will be used to collect feedback on changes in the participants life quality. Total up to 100 participants with and 20 participants without postmenopausal atrophy will be involved in the study. Participants will be divided into three groups: laser treatment (study group), topical hormones treatment (control group 1) and no treatment (control group 2) by 70, 30 and 20 participants in each group respectively. The time intervals between special tests and the tests themselves will be the same for all groups. Thus, a direct comparison between conventional treatment (topical hormones), laser treatment of the vaginal atrophy and normal condition without treatment will be made. The main hypothesis of the study is improvement in condition of the vaginal walls after laser treatment compared with the initial state of not less than thirty percent of participants, and improvement in condition on average compared with the control group.
The rationale of the study is to investigate the results of a prolapse treatment in adult women with a vaginal prolapse. The investigators will investigate this by taking questionnaires in women undergoing a surgical prolapse repair and in women that are being treated by a vaginal pessary. The objective is to compare the results of the different methods with each other and to observe the evolution of the symptoms in patients undergoing surgery or pessary use. The investigators would also like to discover existing problems in pessary use and adverse effects.
VNOTES (Transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery) is a relatively new surgery for Hysterectomy and Uterosacral ligament suspension to treat Vaginal prolapse. The investigators wish to run a randomized control trial comparing it to classic Vaginal hysterectomy for the same indication.
This trial will assess whether use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts sensation during filling (i.e., a change of more than 25% of first sensation, first desire to void, strong desire to void, or maximum cystometric capacity) and determine whether the use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts pain/discomfort, filling metrics, and voiding metrics.
Female pregnant patients in their 2nd trimester will be evaluated for vaginal elasticity using vaginal tactile imaging in addition to elasticity evaluation during the 3rd trimester and 6 weeks postpartum.
A pudendal nerve block is a procedure where a local anesthetic is injected where the pudendal nerve is located. This allows quick pain relief to the perineum, vulva, and vagina. The purpose of this research study is see if injecting a long-acting local anesthetic, called Liposomal Bupivacaine (EXPAREL), will result in less post-operative pain after having vaginal prolapse surgery. Typical post-operative pain lasts a few days. Short-acting anesthetics only provide pain relief in the few hours after surgery. EXPAREL will add the benefit of longer acting pain relief that can last up to 72 hours with the same safety profile. EXPAREL is an FDA-approved medication. It has been used and studied extensively in gynecologic surgery for incisional pain. It has also been studied in Urology and Orthopedic surgery with an excellent safety profile with good pain relief.
Participants who undergo laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LSCP) plus posterior repair (PR) will demonstrate greater improvement bowel symptom scores compared to participants who undergo LSCP alone at 3 months postoperatively.
