About this study

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of electric stimulation on the pelvic floor function in cervical cancer patients with type III hysterectomy.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, multi center, open, randomized, controlled clinical trial. All cervical carcinoma patients who undergo type III hysterectomy in the hospitals involved in this study were recruited. 5-7 days postoperative, those who meet the inclusion criteria and without the exclusion criteria and sign the consent were randomized grouped of intervention and control objective by 1:1. At the same time, according to the research hospital, menopausal status (menopause vs menopause) and surgery approach (laparoscopic vs open),they were further stratified randomly. Patients in the intervention group received electrical stimulation treatment based on conventional clinical nursing, while patients in control group only receive routine clinical care. Except for the treatment of electrical stimulation, other research procedures is the same in the two groups. The recovery rate of urination function, pelvic floor function and life quality of the two group is compared.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PHENIX USB 8.Device

    Also called Electric Stimulation Treatment

    Electrical stimulation program: frequency: 1/4/Hertz (HZ), pulse width: 270/230/270 μs, time: 30min. Electrode piece: 50*50mm sticky electrode plate. Position: an electrode piece is placed in the S3, and an electrode piece is placed in the bladder region.Current intensity adjusted according to the patient's tolerance, the maximum current intensity of the pain was not appropriate, generally not more than 100milliampere(mA).Devices PHENIX USB 8.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Urination function recovery rate

    Measured: From 14 days to 24 months after operation

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of participants with recovery of defecation function and urinary function after III hysterectomy

    Measured: From 14 days to 24 months after operation

  2. Quality of life Questionnaire

    Measured: From 14 days to 24 months after operation

  3. Overall Survival

    The overall survival (OS) in cervical cancer patients after 3 years' III hysterectomy after comparison of pelvic floor rehabilitation therapy and control group

    Measured: From 14 days to 24 months after operation

  4. Disease-free survival

    Comparison of pelvic floor rehabilitation treatment group and control group of cervical cancer patients with type III hysterectomy 3 years disease-free survival (DFS)

    Measured: From 14 days to 24 months after operation

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Urination function recovery rate (time frame: From 14 days to 24 months after operation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02492542, which also lists 19 linked publications.

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.
