About this study

The primary objective is to describe the safety and efficacy of intravenous sodium fluorescein to visualize ureteral efflux during intraoperative cystoscopy after total laparoscopic hysterectomy. Secondary objective is to report on surgeon's satisfaction with the overall use of sodium fluorescein.

Read the detailed description

Thirty patients (n=30) ongoing a total laparoscopic hysterectomy in a tertiary gynecological reference center will be included in this prospective descriptive study.Once hysterectomy is completed, a 10 % solution of sodium fluorescein at a 0,25 ml dose will be injected before performing diagnostic cystoscopy. Time from injection to fluorescent visualization will be recorded as well as coloration density. Adverse events are collected in the operating room, in the recovery room, before patient's discharge and through a home survey.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
sodium fluoresceinExperimentalOnce hysterectomy completed, a 10 % solution of sodium fluorescein at a 0,25 ml dose (25 mg) is injected before performing diagnostic cystoscopy for all patient. Name: Fluorescite Injection 10%, contains sodium fluorescein (equivalent to fluorescein 10% w/v) Dosage : 25 mg Frequency: only once
Receives: Drug: sodium fluorescein injection 10%

What is being measured

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

  1. Quality of Ureteral Efflux Coloration With Sodium Fluorescein Collected With Dedicated Questionnaire

    Time of visualisation of turbulence, time of visualisation of coloration and quality of ureteral efflux coloration (clearly visible or somewhat visible or not visible)

    Measured: within 15 minutes after the beginning of cystoscopy

  2. Adverse Reaction Related to Sodium Fluorescein Injection

    Measured: From sodium fluorescein injection to follow-up 2 months after surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Surgeon Satisfaction Regarding Ureteral Efflux Visualization by Filling Out a Dedicated Questionnaire

    For each participant, surgeon had 3 options to evaluate their satisfaction regarding ureteral efflux coloration with sodium fluorescein during the surgery : very satisfied or satisfied or unacceptable

    Measured: after cystoscopy (up to 15 min after injection)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing sodium fluorescein injection 10% in people with Ureteral Injury, run by CHU de Quebec-Universite Laval at 1 site in Canada.

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 1 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Apr 2021. 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 Canada. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 1 Apr 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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

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?

Quality of Ureteral Efflux Coloration With Sodium Fluorescein Collected With Dedicated Questionnaire (time frame: within 15 minutes after the beginning of cystoscopy). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 1 Apr 2021.
