Active clinical trials for "Cystocele"

The purpose of this study is determine whether grafted anterior vaginal prolapse repair is more effective and associated with less complications than prolapse repair with suture.

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.

Background: The pelvic floor muscles (PFM) are located inside the pelvis, surrounding the urethra, vagina and rectum. They provide structural support for the pelvic organs. Dysfunctional PFM can lead to urine and fecal incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse (POP), sexual problems and chronic pain syndromes. POP increases with age, parity and weakness in the PFM. Symptoms associated with POP are backache, bladder, bowel and sexual dysfunction, and pelvic heaviness. Thus the condition is debilitating and can greatly affect the quality of life, interfering with day-to-day activities and reduce participation in physical activity. The aim of the project: As life expectancy increases, more women may experience POP. Hence it is important to prevent and treat the condition at an early stage. Despite being a common disorder among women, little research has been done on POP. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT). PFMT is a non-invasive method with no adverse effects. If there is significant effect, the main goal is to incorporate this method in clinical practice among physiotherapists and medical doctors. If PFM training is effective, more emphasis of PFM training can be put into regular female fitness programs. The prevalence of POP increases with age. Method: This is a single blind randomised controlled trial to evaluate the effect of PFMT on POP. 100 women with POP will be randomised to either training or control group. The training programme will last for six months, training once a week with a physiotherapist in addition to a structured home training programme. A blinded case-control study will also be carried out. 50 women without POP will be matched for age and vaginal deliveries. Before starting the RCT study, a reproducibility study on perineal ultrasound will be carried out in 18 women.

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) has been shown to improve postoperative outcomes in a variety of surgical conditions. However, data regarding its role in urogynecologic surgery is limited. This study aimed to investigate the role of the ERAS protocol on postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing urogynecologic surgery.

This study randomizes postmenopausal women with symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse planning native tissue transvaginal surgical repair to 6-8 weeks of preoperative and 1-year continued postoperative vaginal estrogen cream compared to placebo cream. This clinical trial and basic science investigation are designed to understand the mechanisms by which local estrogen treatment affects connective tissues of the pelvic floor and determine whether its use before and after prolapse repair will (i) improve success rates of the surgical intervention and minimize prolapse recurrence and (ii) impact favorably upon symptoms of other pelvic floor disorders.

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 pelvic organ prolapse compared to traditional vaginal reconstructive surgery without mesh.

Cystocele, a protrusion of the bladder, happens while the bladder descends into the vagina. There are more than one underlying causes for the development of cystocele ensuing in weak point of the muscles and the connective tissue surrounding the bladder and vagina. This study will be a randomized clinical trial. After the department permission of physical therapy data will be collected from patient of Jinnah Hospital. Data will be collected before and after treatment. Randomization will be done by lottery method. Group A will be given pelvic floor strengthning exercises and goup B will be given transverse abdominas strengthning exercises. Each group will have 33 patients each. A 6-week physical therapy program will be planned. Group A will be given pelvic floor muscle strengthning exercise and the group B will given transverse abdominas exercises.Data will be entered and analysed by SPSS version 25.

The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of anterior pelvic prolapse reconstruction with a titanized polypropylene mesh on patients quality of life.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the success rate of cystocele repair using polypropylene mesh or porcine dermis compared to that of anterior colporrhaphy in a prospective randomized fashion. The study will be performed in a randomized, prospective, single-blinded fashion.
