Active clinical trials for "Prolapse"

In frail patients with external full-thickness rectal prolapse (FTRP), the exact postoperative recurrence and functional result outcomes difference between Laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy (LVMR) and perineal stapler resection (PSR) have not been investigated, leading to ineffective treatment. Objectives: Evaluating the efficacy of PSR versus LVMR for treating external FTRP in the elderly. Design: This was a retrospective study that involved multiple centers. Settings: This study was conducted in the colorectal surgical units of our Universities' Hospitals Patients: 330 elderly patients divided into LVMR group (250), and PSR (80) between April 2012 and April 2019. Before and after surgery, patients were evaluated using the Wexner Incontinence Scale, the Altomare Constipation Scale, and the patient's satisfaction. Main outcomes measurement: The primary outcome was the recurrence rate and risk factors of FTRP. Secondary outcomes were postoperative incontinence and constipation and patients' satisfaction.

Sacro-hysteropexy Using Proline Mesh Versus Mersilene Tape in Apical Prolapse: a Randomized Controlled Study .Aim of This Study is to Compare Between Using Poly-proline Mesh Versus Mersilene Tape in Abdominal Sacrohysteropexy Repairing Apical Prolapse Stage 2 or More. Outcome Measures: Short Term: investigators Will Evaluate Operative Time, Blood Loss, Hospital Stay Duration, Occurrence of Major Complications, Episodes of Constipation, Urinary Retention and Urinary Tract Infection. Long Term (After 1 year): investigators Will Evaluate Occurrence of Relapse as Well as Late Complications. Local Symptoms, Quality of Life and Sexual Function Will be Evaluated by a Questioner Before and After Surgery

Anterior-apical compartment mesh implants for pelvic floor reconstruction are anchored here to the Sacro-Spinous ligaments and evaluated being a feasible and effective method.

The purpose of this study is to assess a new technique of measurement for the levator muscle. this measurement may be applied during a clinical evaluation of eyelid malposition. our purpose is to quantify the levator muscle strength and to corelate it to standard levator muscle strength assessment techniques routinley used in the oculoplastic clinic.

Transvaginal meshes (TVM) are indicated for the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) where surgical intervention is necessary. Due to a potential risk of de novo dyspareunia, TVM are mainly used in postmenopausal women and in case of recurrent POP. PROLIFT+M (Trademark) is based on a highly flexible material which is partially absorbable. We suggest that PROLIFT+M has less impact on the vita sexualis than conventional TVM and could also be used for the treatment of younger and/or sexually active women. This study observes women who are routinely treated with PROLIFT+M with regard to their sexual function before and after the surgery. The hypothesis is that there is no worsening in vita sexualis with PROLIFT+M.

The main objective of the study is to assess the effectiveness of the sheathed speculum in providing adequate visualization and access to the cervix in patients with excessive vaginal tissue. The secondary objective is to rate the patient's comfort evaluation during the sheathed speculum examination.

The purpose of this study is to validate safety and effectiveness in assessment of the female pelvic floor tissue, and, assess the ability of Vaginal Tactile Imager (VTI) to detect early prolapse conditions and characterize the outcome of reconstructive surgery.

The primary aim is to assess whether an interactive patient/provider counseling process using a web-based tool (iPadTM) will improve patient satisfaction regarding understanding of her bulge symptoms. The secondary aims are to assess whether an interactive patient/provider counseling process using web-based tool (iPadTM) will: Decrease patient anxiety with counseling Improve patient satisfaction with counseling Improve provider knowledge, anxiety, and satisfaction with counseling Be easy to use in clinic Be actually used in clinic

The purpose of this pilot study is to perform a procedure to evaluate the safety of the placement of a new device (known as the VFIX device).

Robotic-assisted Abdominal Sacrocolpopexy is both a feasible and safe method for apical prolapse repair of the vagina.
