About this study

Official title: Rating the Degree of Pelvic Organs Prolapse in Women According to the POPQ Method Before and After Emptying the Urinary Bladder

Pelvic organ prolapse is a common disorder that affects 3-9% of adult women. Treatment of this disorder varies and includes conservative and interventional treatment.

Pelvic organs prolapse grading has an important roll in determining the appropriate treatment. Developments in this field has led to the development of an agreed method to rate the degree of pelvic organs prolapse (POPQ).

The roll of Urodynamic test is to assess whether there is urinary incontinence and underlying cause.

In Richard C. et al publication, that presented the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POPQ) method for the first time, there was no reference to the urinary bladder state (full or empty) during the examination, hence the investigators are asking to conduct a prospective study in order to evaluate the degree of pelvic organs prolapse according to POPQ method during urodynamic examination, with a full and empty urinary bladder.

Read the detailed description

Pelvic organ prolapse is a common disorder that affects 3-9% of adult women. Treatment of this disorder varies and includes behavioral therapy, pelvic floor muscles rehabilitation exercises, medication therapy, devices that are tailored to the patient in order to improve pelvic organ support and various surgical procedures. Developments in this field and the need to tailor the appropriate treatment to the type and degree of pelvic organ prolapse resulted in the development of an agreed method to rate the degree of pelvic organs prolapse.

Pelvic organs prolapse grading has an important roll in determining the appropriate treatment. A big proportion of women who suffer from pelvic organ prolapse suffer from urinary system disorders as well, such as difficulty in urinating, urinary incontinence, and urgency and frequency.

At the pelvic floor reconstruction clinic, women who suffer from pelvic organs prolapse, undergo a preliminary workup that includes a medical questionnaire, physical examination to evaluate the degree of pelvic organ prolapse according to the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification method (POPQ), and a urodynamic test.

The impression of differences in the degree of prolapse according to POPQ method, before and after urination, has led to the hypothesis that the degree of pelvic organs prolapse varies according to the degree of fullness of the bladder

Urodynamic test is a test performed during patient evaluation at the pelvic floor reconstruction clinic. During this test the woman is asked to empty her bladder and then two transducers are inserted, one into the bladder and the other into the rectum. During the test the bladder is filled with physiological solution and then the patient is asked to urinate. During bladder emptying urinary flow velocity is measured and the pressure in the abdomen and bladder recorded for later evaluation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Medtronic-Dantec Urodynamic System in people with Patients With Pelvic Organs Prolapse, run by Carmel Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Eran Segev, MD (97248250637, eranse2@clalit.org.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluating the degree of pelvic organs prolapse according to POPQ method, with filled and empty urinary bladder, during urodynamic test (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Mar 2013.
