About this study

Official title: A Prospective Study Evaluating the Clinical Outcome of a Modified d'Hoore Technique for Laparoscopic Ventral Mesh Rectopexy

The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate the clinical outcome of a modified d'Hoore technique for laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy in patients with primary rectal prolapse, rectocele and/or enterocele.The goal of the study will be achieved by reporting the peri- and postoperative complications ((serious) adverse events), recurrences and re-interventions. Pre-operative to postoperative changes in pain, functional outcome and quality of life will be evaluated as well.

Being tested
Ifabond (Péters surgical)
Medical subject headings
Rectocele, Hernia, Rectal Prolapse

What participants receive

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

  • Ifabond (Péters surgical)Device

    Ifabond (Péters surgical) is a CE-marked synthetic surgical glue for internal and external use. The glue is non-toxic, biocompatible and biodegradable. It is commercially available and can be used for mesh fixation, as tissue adhesive, for sealing of sutured tissue and for hemostasis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rectocele and Enterocele, run by Duomed at 1 site in Belgium.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Oct 2023. 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 Belgium. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Stephanie De Munter, PhD (+32 (0)11 28 69 48, stephanie.de.munter@archerresearch.eu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Procedural efficacy - Number of participants with (serious) adverse events (time frame: During procedure). The study lists 16 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 10 Oct 2023.
