About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Transcervical Vasopressin Injection VersusVaginal Misoprostol During Hysteroscopic Myomectomy in Reducing Operative Blood Loss and Operation Time: A Randomized Trial.

A prospective randomized study designed to compare the efficacy of transcervical vasopressin injection versus vaginal misoprostol in reducing intra -operative blood loss during hysteroscopic mymectomy .

Read the detailed description

This was a prospective, randomized, study on forty women with symptomatic submucous myoma presented mostly with bleeding and/or infertility scheduled for hysteroscopic myomectomy were randomized to groups (group A) 20 patients transcervical intramyoma vasopressin injection and (group B) 20patients with vaginal misoprostol is used .

Being tested
Misoprostol, Vasopressin

What participants receive

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

  • MisoprostolDrug

    Also called Misotac

    prostaglandin E1 analogue vaginally inserted two hours before hystertsopic myomectomy to evaluate intraoperative blood loss and operative time needed for completion of myomectomy

  • VasopressinDrug

    one ampoule of vasopressin was diluted to 50 ml of normal saline, and 10 ml (4 units of vasopressin) was withdrawn in a syringe. Needle was inserted through the working channel of the hysteroscope until its tip was seen. The needle tip was pointed to the site of injection under hysteroscopic guidance during the whole injection technique. Aspiration was done first to avoid intravascular injection of vasopressin. The diluted solution was injected into the surface, especially to parts with dilated vasculature till they blanch.

What is being measured

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

  1. intraoperative bleeding

    subjective assessment of bleeding by the surgeon.

    Measured: start with the first resectoscope myoma cut till withdrawal of hysterscope through the cervix at the end of the procedure

  2. operative time

    time needed for completion of myomectomy procedure

    Measured: start with insertion of hysterscope through the cervix ends with withdrawal of hysterscopy through the cervix at the end of the procedure

  3. haemoglobin and hematocrit deficit

    haemoglobin and hematocrit values before and after myomectomy

    Measured: 24 hours before myomectomy and 24 hour after myomectomy

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Degree of visual clarity

    visual analogue scale straight horizontal line of fixed length, usually 100 mm and the ends are defined as the extreme limits of the parameter)

    Measured: start with the first resectoscope myoma cut till the completion of myoma resection

  2. Fluid deficit

    calculation the fluid deficit between in flow volume and outflow volume

    Measured: start with insertion of hysterscope through the cervix ends with withdrawal of hysterscopy through the cervix at the end pf the procedure

  3. time need for cervical dilatation

    time needed to dilate the cervix to admit the operative hysterescope

    Measured: start from grasping the cervix till insertion of hysterescope

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Misoprostol and Vasopressin in people with Submucous Leiomyoma of Uterus, run by Zagazig University.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

intraoperative bleeding (time frame: start with the first resectoscope myoma cut till withdrawal of hysterscope through the cervix at the end of the procedure). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 29 Apr 2019.
