What is being measured

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

  1. The success rates of both laparoscopic Burch colposuspension versus laparoscopic modified Burch colposuspension for treatment of female stress urinary incontinence

    Measured: 3 months post operative

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Post operative rates of voiding dysfunction (at 3 months).

    Measured: at 3 months

  2. Overall operative time

    Measured: Intraoperative (measured from verrus needle insertion)

  3. Complication rates of both techniques.

    Measured: up to 3 months
