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.

Laparoscopic Versus Vaginal Approach Closure Complications

Vaginal Vault Prolapse

Hysterectomy is considered as a common operation in Gynecology. Hysterectomy could be made by vaginally, laparoscopically or abdominally. The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologist advises the use of a minimally invasive technique for the sake of women and to decrease hospital stay and costs.

Kegal Exercises With and Without Postural Correction on Postpartum Pelvic Organ Prolapse in Primiparous...

Pelvic Organ Prolapse

To study the effects of kegal exercises with and without postural correction on pelvic organ prolapse in primiparous women. Although pregnancy is a physiological process, it is associated with risk factors. These risk factors can put women at risk. One of the most common problems is pelvic floor muscle weakness, and this weakness of pelvic floor muscles causes many other problems, such as pelvic organ prolapse. Normal delivery (vaginal delivery) can cause laxity and weakness of ligaments such as the external urethral and pubourethral. Pelvic organs prolapse severely affects the quality of life of patients. Pelvic organ prolapse appears in women after vaginal delivery. Pelvic muscle training is a conservative treatment for many problems, including pelvic organ prolapse. However, the effects of pelvic floor muscle training for pelvic organ prolapse in primiparous women are controversial. This study is aimed at a systematic review of the effects of pelvic floor muscle training on pelvic organ prolapse in primiparous women.

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Electrical Stimulation to Treat Pelvic Floor Disorder

Pelvic Organ ProlapseIncontinence

Female pelvic floor disorders (PFDs) include urinary incontinence,pelvic organ prolapse (POP), and fecal incontinence-which often occur together. Pelvic floor disorders impair multiple aspects of the life quality, including the sexual function of women. Surgery became the first choice of treatment, however, and not until 1980s was the renewed interest in conservative therapies. This may be because of higher awareness among women and cost of and morbidity after surgery. The conservative treatment included pelvic floor muscle training, electrical stimulation, vaginal cones, and biofeedback. The outcome was up to 35~70 % improved rate as the literature before. Current guidelines recommended conservative management as a first-line therapy. However, there was no consistent consensus on this issue due to variations in stimulation parameters、adjuvant concurrent modality or duration of treatment course, and insufficient result about large and long term follow up of randomized- controlled studies. Therefore, the investigators try to conduct one randomized-controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of conservative treatment for Pelvic floor disorder (Pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, chronic pelvic pain etc.). At the aspect of Quality of life, our studies tried to focus on the different domains of pelvic disorder and sexual quality by means of validated questionnaire more objectively.

Pelvic Organs Prolapse Treatment Using Neodymium Laser

Pelvic Organ ProlapseFemale Urogenital Diseases

The aim of this prospective study is investigation of efficiency and safety of medical device "Magic Max" for preoperative treatment of pelvic organs prolapse I-II degree of severity. To assess the condition of the vaginal walls and vulva before and after laser treatment, the following methods will be used: ultrasonography with Doppler ultrasonography, vaginal health index, histological examination, immunohistochemical examination, optical coherence tomography (OCT) (elastography). Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory Questionnaire (PFDI-20), The Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire (PISQ-12), International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form (ICIQ-SF), Pelvic Floor Impact Questionnaire (PFIQ-7) will be used to collect feedback on changes in the participants life quality. Genetic testing of 12 gene variants will be carried out. Correlation of genes variants and treatment efficacy will be assessed. Total up to 135 participants with pelvic organs prolapse I-II degree of severity, or any other pathology of pelvic organs, which require surgical intervention will be involved in the study. Participants will be divided into three groups: group with anterior and/or posterior (A/P) colporrhaphy and laser preoperative treatment (laser treatment group), group with A/P colporrhaphy only (control group 1), and group with any other surgical intervention of pelvic area (control group 2), by 45 participants in each. The time intervals between tests will be the same for groups with A/P colporrhaphy, group with any other surgical intervention will be examined before and on the day of surgery without further observation. The main hypothesis of the study is improvement in condition of the vaginal walls after laser preoperative treatment compared with the control group 1.

Cervical Arthroplasty Cost Effectiveness Study (CACES)

RadiculopathyCervical20 more

To date, no consensus exists on which anterior surgical technique is more cost-effective to treat cervical degenerative disc disease (CDDD). The most commonly used surgical treatment for patients with single- or multilevel symptomatic CDDD is anterior cervical discectomy with fusion (ACDF). However, new complaints of radiculopathy and/or myelopathy commonly develop at adjacent levels, also known as clinical adjacent segment pathology (CASP). It remains unknown to what extent kinematics, surgery-induced fusion and natural history of disease play a role in its development. Anterior cervical discectomy with arthroplasty (ACDA) is thought to reduce the incidence of CASP by preserving motion in the operated segment. ACDA is often discouraged as the implant costs are higher whilst the clinical outcomes are similar to ACDF. However, preventing CASP might be a reason for ACDA to be a more cost-effective technique in the long-term. In this randomized controlled trial patients will be randomized to receive ACDF or ACDA in a 1:1 ratio. Adult patients with single- or multi-level CDDD and symptoms of radiculopathy and/or myelopathy will be included. The primary outcome is cost-effectiveness and cost-utility of both techniques from a societal perspective. Secondary objectives are the differences in clinical and radiological outcomes between the two techniques, as well as the qualitative process surrounding anterior decompression surgery. All outcomes will be measured at baseline and every 6 months till 4 years postoperatively. High quality evidence regarding the cost-effectiveness of both ACDA and ACDF is lacking, to date no prospective trials from a societal perspective exist. Considering the ageing of the population and the rising healthcare costs, the need for a solid clinical cost-effectiveness trial addressing this question is high.
