Active clinical trials for "Prolapse"

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is considered one of the commonest gynecologic health problems all over the world. Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is common and can be seen in up to 50% or more of parous women. The annual aggregated rate of associated surgery for pelvic organ prolapse is in the range of 10-30 per 10,000 women. It is estimated that women have an 11-19% life-time risk of undergoing surgery for POP. This rate is projected to increase over the next 2-3 decades. Apical POP refers any descent of the cervix or the vaginal cuff scar(as after hysterectomy) below a point which is 2 cm less than the total vaginal length about the plane of the hymen. Apical POP is due to defect in apical support with damage to the cardinal and uterosacral ligaments. Apical pelvic organ prolapse is a common issue in our country with significant incidence rate due to many predisposing factors including increasing age, higher gravidity and parity (especially the number of vaginal births)

This is a single-blinded, randomized controlled trial investigating if a patient educational video on pelvic organ prolapse improves patient understanding of this pelvic floor disorder and satisfaction in their healthcare decision making for its management.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of commercially available genital vibrator use on sexual health, female pelvic floor disorders, and overall quality of life among a diverse population of women.

this study designed To evaluate the efficacy and outcomes of laparoscopic approach for repair of paravaginal defects associated with anterior vaginal wall prolapse.

The aim of this study is to further evaluate this minimally invasive SSLF technique with respect to safety, clinical effectiveness, and patient satisfaction. The procedure will be performed in women electing to undergo surgical repair of their prolapse who wish to preserve their uterus, and will be evaluated using standardized measures and questionnaires.

This is a study performed to evaluate the role of vitamin D supplementation on the strength of levator ani muscle in menopausal women with pelvic organ prolapse

Rehabilitation after lumbar disc surgery (prolapse) focuses on various elements such as endurance, strength, stretching and information. Evidence concludes that it is not harmful to return to activity after lumbar disc surgery, and restrictions to activities after these operations are today more or less nonexistent. Some studies have shown that high intensity programs might be more effective, but they are probably more expensive. In recent years cognitive interventions have received more attention in rehabilitation programs after lumbar disc surgery. The cognitive approach is focused on providing patient knowledge to reduce uncertainty so that he or she can understand what is important after lumbar disc surgery so that belief in self-efficacy increases. A goal of the rehabilitation is to get the patient to resume normal activities. Reviews ask for how much treatment are needed in a rehabilitation program after lumbar disc surgery. The study will be a randomized clinical trial. The study will compare two different post-operative rehabilitation programs (general information or general information + exercise therapy). Both groups will begin treatment 1 day after surgery. Subjects in exercise therapy group are supposed to continue with exercises 3 months. In this study the following hypothesis will be studied: Brief intervention, an educational model, alone after lumbar disc surgery do have the same effect on pain in legs and low back as brief intervention, an educational model, combined with exercise therapy. Exercises which are instructed after lumbar disc surgery in a rehabilitation program, are being done by the patients.

To determine the feasibility of conducting a randomised controlled trial (RCT) of the effectiveness of a PFMT intervention in conjunction with vaginal pessary management versus vaginal pessary management alone for women with pelvic organ prolapse. To develop and test the methods for a main trial. The ultimate aim of a large multi-centre RCT would be to answer the question: Is conservative management of pelvic organ prolapse with an individualised PFMT intervention in conjunction with vaginal pessary more effective than vaginal pessary alone in reducing prolapse-specific symptoms, prolapse severity and the need for further prolapse treatment?

To evaluate the clinical outcome and urodynamic effect of two novel vaginal tailored mesh surgeries.
