About this study

Official title: Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy Versus Total Abdominal Hysterectomy in Women With Endometrial Neoplasia; Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

The aim of this study is to compare operative time between total laparoscopy hysterectomy with bilateral salpingoophrectomy (TLH+BSO) versus total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingooophorectomy (TAH+BSO) in women with uterine neoplasia.

Read the detailed description

Research Questions:

Is total laparoscopic hysterectomy associated with similar operative operative time as total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingoophrectomy in women with uterine neoplasia?

Research Hypothesis:

In women with uterine neoplasia TLH with BSO may be similar to TAH with BSO as regard operative time.

Being tested
Hysterectomy

What is being measured

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

  1. Operative time

    Operative time measured in minutes using stopwatch excluding time of concomitant surgical procedures.

    Measured: From skin incision till closure of the vault "up to 4 hours".

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Blood loss

    Intra operative blood loss will be estimated via:

    1. Amount of blood in the suction bottle.
    2. Estimation will be based on number of soaked gauzes and towels (soaked gauze = 20 ml blood; soaked towel = 150 ml; semi soaked towel = 75 ml).

    Measured: From skin incision start until skin suturing is finished "up to 4 hours".

  2. Blood transfusion

    The need to blood transfusion to the patient.

    Measured: From admission to the hospital until the home discharge "up to 1 week".

  3. Postoperative pain

    Assessment of pain intensity using Visual Analog Scale (VAS) which is one-dimensional measure of pain intensity.

    It is a continuous scale comprised of a horizontal line, 10 centimeters (100 mm) in length, anchored by 2 verbal descriptors, one for each symptom extreme. The scale is anchored by "no pain" (score of 0) and "pain as bad as it could be" or "worst imaginable pain" (score of 100).

    Measured: 8 hours after the end of operation.

  4. Hospital stay

    Hospital stay duration in days.

    Measured: From admission to the hospital until the home discharge "up to 1 week".

  5. Incidence of operative complications

    The need for laparotomy, and bowel or bladder or ureteric injury.

    Measured: During operation.

  6. Incidence of postoperative complications

    Morbidities e.g.:

    • Vaginal vault hematoma or pelvic hematoma or abscess.
    • Surgical site infection.
    • Urinary tract infection.
    • Need for post-operative blood transfusion.
    • Postoperative bowel or urinary tract complications.

    Measured: Up to 1 week postoperative.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Hysterectomy in people with Hysterectomy and Laparoscopy, run by Ain Shams Maternity Hospital at 1 site in Egypt.

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 3 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 9 Oct 2018. 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 Egypt. 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?

Operative time (time frame: From skin incision till closure of the vault "up to 4 hours".). 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 9 Oct 2018.
