About this study

The purpose of this research project is to test the effectiveness of a previsit educational video designed to help women understand the risks and benefits of a midurethral sling for treatment of stress urinary incontinence. A total of 38 participants will be recruited from both the Urogynecology pre-operative clinic of the university of California, Irvine Medical Center and the Urogynecology pre-operative clinic at Kaiser Permanente, Anaheim and Orange County. Participants will be randomized either to watch a 10 minute educational video (intervention group) or read a standard handout describing the midurethral sling (control group). Participants will then complete their pre-operative visit in the usual fashion. Participants will complete a pre- and post- intervention knowledge questionnaire to assess the primary outcome (change in knowledge before and after intervention). Participants will repeat the knowledge questionnaire and complete validated questionnaires for satisfaction with decision scale and decision regret at 2 and 6 weeks post-operative.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient knowledge questionnaire (investigator-created)

    The change in participant knowledge as measured with a patient knowledge questionnaire. This questionnaire was created by the study investigators and piloted by physicians within our institutions. It was submitted to and approved by our IRB for use in this study. This is a 15-point questionnaire (true/false/unknown answer choices) in which 1 point is given for each correct response and 0 points given for incorrect or unanswered questions (minimum score: 0/15, maximum score: 15/15). The questions pertain to the risks, benefits, and procedure of the mid-urethral sling surgery. Higher scores indicate better participant knowledge. A subscale of mesh-related questions will also be examined. This subscale reports the participant knowledge pertaining to complications and procedural knowledge specific to the use of mesh in the mid-urethral sling. The scale of this subset ranges from 0/5 to 5/5, with higher scores indicating greater participant knowledge.

    Measured: 6 weeks

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?

Patient knowledge questionnaire (investigator-created) (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 NCT03808974, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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.
