About this study

The investigators designed a prospective study in this article to evaluate the efficacy, the life quality and the complications of two different meshes of type I (one is Perigee/Apogee, the other is named Gynecare prolift) versus traditional surgery, and also studied the influence of some surgical procedures on the prognosis.

Read the detailed description

Pelvic organ prolapse is defined as a downward descent of the pelvic organs that results in the protrusion of vagina, uterus, or both. The investigators designed a prospective study in this article to evaluate the efficacy, the life quality and the complications of two different meshes of type I (one is Perigee/Apogee, the other is named Gynecare prolift) versus traditional surgery. The investigators also studied the influence of some surgical procedures on the prognosis. In this study,The investigators divided the patients randomly into three groups :the group A was a total of 91 patients who accepted transvaginal hysterectomy and total pelvic floor reconstruction combined Perigee and Apogee polypropylene mesh(PA);the group B was a total of 97 patients who accepted transvaginal hysterectomy and total pelvic floor reconstruction with Gynecare prolift polypropylene mesh;the group C was a total of 70 patients who accepted transvaginal hysterectomy and anterior and posterior vaginal wall repair without any mesh.The investigators did POP-Q measurements and questionnaire preoperatively and postoperatively and recorded volume of bleeding,day of postoperative indwelling catheter and the mesh complications。

What is being measured

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

  1. Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification

    the prolapse of stage II and above is defined as recurrence in POP-Q stage.

    Measured: at 12 months after surgery

  2. sexual quality of life through the pelvic organ prolapse / urinary incontinence sexual questionnaire

    PISQ-12

    Measured: at 12 months after surgery

  3. pelvic floor distress inventory short form

    PFDI-20

    Measured: at 12 months after surgery

  4. mesh exposure

    mesh was seen in the vagina by gynecological examination

    Measured: at 12 months after surgery

  5. sexual quality of life through the pelvic organ prolapse / urinary incontinence sexual questionnaire

    PISQ-12

    Measured: at 24 months after surgery

  6. Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification

    the prolapse of stage II and above is defined as recurrence in POP-Q stage.

    Measured: at 24 months after surgery

  7. pelvic floor distress inventory short form

    PFDI-20

    Measured: at 24 months after surgery

  8. mesh exposure

    mesh was seen in the vagina by gynecological examination

    Measured: at 24 months after surgery

  9. sexual quality of life through the pelvic organ prolapse / urinary incontinence sexual questionnaire

    PISQ-12

    Measured: baseline

  10. pelvic floor distress inventory short form

    PFDI-20

    Measured: baseline

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. stress urinary incontinence

    leakage of urine with exertion or with sneezing or coughing

    Measured: at 1 months after surgery

  2. stress urinary incontinence

    leakage of urine with exertion or with sneezing or coughing

    Measured: 3 months after surgery

  3. Volume of bleeding

    Measured: during the operation

  4. Elevated blood pressure

    Measured: during the operation

  5. Day of postoperative indwelling catheter

    Measured: 1 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Perigee and Apogee Mesh, Gynecare Prolift Mesh and Traditional Surgery in people with Pelvic Organ Prolapse, run by Nanjing Medical University.

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 6 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 6 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (time frame: at 12 months after surgery). The study lists 10 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 6 Mar 2017.
