About this study

Official title: Absorbable vs Non-absorbable Suture in Laparoscopic Sacral Colpopexy: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Being tested
laparoscopic sacral colpopexy with absorbable suture, laparoscopic sacral colpopexy with non absorbable suture
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • laparoscopic sacral colpopexy with absorbable sutureProcedure or surgery

  • laparoscopic sacral colpopexy with non absorbable sutureProcedure or surgery

    laparoscopic sacral colpopexy to correct pelvic organ prolapse with anterior and posterior meshes with non absorbable suture

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients with anatomical correction of the prolapse

    Anatomical correction of the prolapse evaluated by gynecological visit

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. rate mesh erosion

    Measured: 1 year

  2. long term outcomes

    development of nicturia, dysuria, obstructed defecation , urinary incontinence

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Rate of recurrence

    de novo anterior or central or posterior compartment prolapse

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing laparoscopic sacral colpopexy with absorbable suture and laparoscopic sacral colpopexy with non absorbable suture in people with Pelvic Organ Prolapse, run by Catholic University of the Sacred Heart at 1 site in Italy.

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 3 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 31 Mar 2020. 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 Italy. 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?

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?

Number of patients with anatomical correction of the prolapse (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 31 Mar 2020.
