Effect of Electromagnetic Field in Lumbar Disc Prolapse Patients

Lumbar Disc Herniation

to investigate the effect of electromagnetic field therapy on sciatica and postural control in lumbar disc prolapse patients BACKGROUND: lumbar disc prolapse is a clinical condition resulting from compression of lumbar nerve roots resulting in decreased postural control and alleviating sciatic pain Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy is an easy, non-invasive, safe, and relatively new treatment method that is used with growing interest in physical and rehabilitation medicine. Historically, the benefits from magnetotherapy have been reported for patients with musculoskeletal and neurological disorders

Study Comparing Transobturator Cystocele vs. Anterior Vaginal RepairS

Pelvic Organ ProlapseCystocele1 more

Surgical correction of the prolapse in the anterior compartment remains one of the major challenges in urogynecology. Paravaginal defect in level II of vaginal fixation results in the majority of cystoceles. Clinically, these defects are often combined and/or may be bilateral. Hence, careful assessment and individualized planning of the surgical procedure is essential to optimize cystocele repair outcome. Several surgical techniques and approaches have been used for cystocele repair. After the ban on transvaginal meshes, the interest in native tissue repair has risen. Paravaginal defect repair is an effective surgery for paravaginal defect reconstruction. There is a current trend to utilize transvaginal surgery instead of more invasive transabdominal surgery. A novel method of transvaginal paravaginal defect repair - TOCR (transobturator cystocele repair) was suggested. The principle objective of the present trial is to compare its efficacy and safety to preexisting method of native tissue cystocele repair.

Comparison of Posterior and Anterior Approach to Sacrospinous Ligament Apical Fixation - Randomized...

Pelvic Organ ProlapseSurgical Procedure1 more

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common problem among women. Apical prolapse (AP) is a prolapse of the uterus, or vaginal cuff, in women post hysterectomy. Apical fixation to the sacrospinous ligament (SSLF) was first introduced in 1968 by K.RICHTER. .In a large review study, the subjective cure rate after SSLF ranged from 70 to 98%, while objective cure rate was 67-97%. The success rates of SSLF in a randomized study comparing SSLF to uterosacral ligament fixation after two years were 63.1%. In women with combined apical and anterior wall prolapse, SSLF can be performed in two ways: anterior access through the anterior vaginal wall or posterior approach through the posterior vaginal wall. A retrospective comparison of the two methods was performed, demonstrating some efficacy to the anterior approach over the posterior approach mainly in respect to the vaginal length. From the literature review to date, no comparisons were made between the methods in a randomized controlled trial. Objective: To compare the success rates between two approaches (anterior and posterior) for SSLF

Early Mitral ValvE Repair Versus Watchful Waiting for Asymptomatic SEvere Degenerative Mitral Regurgitation...

Degenerative Mitral Regurgitation (MR) Due to Leaflet Prolapse

Degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) due to leaflet prolapse is frequent and can be surgically repaired in the vast majority of patients. Despite the efficacy of mitral valve repair, an ongoing international controversy exists regarding the need to perform early surgery in asymptomatic patients with severe MR and no sign of LV dysfunction in whom the probability of successful and durable repair is very high. In this group of patients, differing views of the risks of uncorrected severe MR exist: considered as benign by those supporting medical "watchful waiting" or associated with significant excess mortality/morbidity by those advocating early surgery. This controversy can only be resolved by a randomized controlled trial which is still lacking. The main objective is to demonstrate the superiority of early mitral valve repair in patients with asymptomatic severe MR due to leaflet prolapse compared to an initial conservative management in terms of all-cause death and cardiovascular morbidity during five years follow-up.

Continuous Stitches Versus Simple Interrupted Stitches for Anterior Colporrhaphy

CystoceleCystocele4 more

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.
