What is being measured

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

  1. Change in urinary function

    The days of indwelling catheter after operation The overall efficiency of urination function

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Change in International Index of Erectile Function [IIEF] score

    Alterations in IIEF scores from baseline up to 18 months postoperatively - 15 item questionnaire, each item range from 0 - 5, with total score to 30. lower score indicates more severe erectile dysfunction (ED)

    Measured: 18 months

  3. Change in FIQL scores

    Alterations in Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life Instrument (FIQL) scores from baseline up to 18 months postoperatively - 29 items range from 1 (strongly agree) to 4 (strongly disagree); with a 1 indicating a lower functional status of quality of life. Scale scores are only calculated if at least half of the items have been answered

    Measured: 18 months

  4. Change in Female Sexual Function Index [FSFI]

    Alterations in FSFI from baseline up to 18 months postoperatively - 19-item self-report measure, each item ranges from 0-5, with full range from 2 to 36, with low score indicating sexual function disorder.

    Measured: 18 months
