About this study

robotic single site surgery (R-SSH) is a novel technique, which may be superior to conventional multiport hysterectomy in select patients regarding cosmesis and postoperative pain. We, perform a randomized trial to compare R-SSH with multiport laparoscopic hysterectomy with regard to the postoperative rehabilitation, cosmesis, the operational cost, and the perioperative morbidity.

Read the detailed description

The study is scheduled to start February 2018 and compares robotic single-site hysterectomy to conventional multiport hysterectomy. Procedures are performed by an experienced two-surgeon team. Patients are randomized to either conventional multiport hysterectomy (N=62) or R-SSH (N=62). Eligibility criteria are the same as for study 1. Patient's satisfaction with body image and cosmesis is assessed at different time points pre- and postoperatively by means of validated cosmesis scales and Body Image Questionnaire. Postoperative pain and analgesia use will be registered as well as secondary outcome parameters as described above. A follow-up at 1, 3 and 6 month include evaluation of the scar and registration of port-site hernias and vaginal dehiscence or other complications. Interviews and diaries will include time of return to home and work, daily activities including sexuality The R-SSH is performed using da Vinci, Xi robotic system. One single port, diameter 2 cm is applied. Applying an additional assistant port is defined conversion of procedure The laparoscopy is performed using our standard equipment and 4 trocars, 5 mm each.

Socio-economical consequences of R-SSH versus conventional laparoscopic hysterectomy Study details in preparation

Sample size calculation was based a previous study on fast track hysterectomy, which showed a difference in return to work of 4 days. 62 women in each group is needed with standard deviation ±8 and a power of 80%. To include those not working, we calculated that with an expected visual analog pain score of 0.86 ±0.2 and 62 in each group the sample was sufficient to detect of difference of 0.1 in visual analog pain score with a power of 80%. All calculation are based on two-sided testing with alpha of 0.05.

What is being measured

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

  1. Return-to-work

    Time from operation to return work

    Measured: up to six months after operation or until work is resumed, whichever came first

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Pain measured by subjective score

    Visual analogue pain score with a minimum of '0' up to '10' on a 10 cm continious scale

    Measured: Visual analogue pain score first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and six months after operation

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 7 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Oct 2024. 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 Denmark. 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.

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?

Return-to-work (time frame: up to six months after operation or until work is resumed, whichever came first). 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 NCT03373513, which also lists 5 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.

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 16 Oct 2024.
