About this study

Official title: Individualisation of Uronephrological Complications Risk Factors in Spinal Dysraphism

Spinal dysraphism consist of congenital malformations resulting of abnormalities in the formation of neural tube and/or surrounding structures during embryogenesis. The aim of this study is to assess if there are specific clinical and paraclinical patterns of pelvic (urinary, bowel, sexual) disorders depending on the dysraphism's type and level of injury.

This description will help to determine a prognosis on symptoms and the risk of complication depending on the dysraphism's type and level of injury. It will provide targeted evaluation and cares: identifying patients who will be at risk of complications and needing acute monitoring or preventing cares on the symptoms' onset.

Pelvic disorders have an important impact on morbi-mortality (urinary dysfunction is the first cause of mortality in adults by renal failure or infection) and also on patients' quality of life.

This description will help to determine a prognosis on symptoms and the risk of complication depending on the dysraphism's type and level of injury. It will provide targeted evaluation and cares: identifying patients who will be at risk of complications and needing acute monitoring or preventing cares on the symptoms' onset.

Pelvic disorders have an important impact on morbi-mortality (urinary dysfunction is the first cause of mortality in adults by renal failure or infection) and also on patients' quality of life.

This is an observational descriptive study with prospective inclusions of patients over 18 years old with spinal dysraphism, evaluated for urinary, anorectal, sexual dysfunctions in a one-day hospitalization.

Inclusions will be recorded during this one-day hospitalization. On this day, patients will have a medical consultation and data concerning medical history, treatments, pelvic disorders' characteristics and physical examination will be recorded. They will answer questionnaires on pelvic dysfunctions, quality of life, anxiety and depression, cognitive disorders and self-catheterizations' adherence or difficulties. They will also undergo urodynamics. In case of peripheral neurological pattern, a perineal electrophysiology will be done with recording of bulbocavernosus reflex latency and somatosensory evoked potentials.

Outpatient examinations (urinary ultrasound, urethrocystography, anorectal manometry, defecography blood test with serum creatinine, glycemia, TSH, lipids) will be collected at the next consultation.

Patients' participation will last 12 months maximum (time period between the one-day hospitalization (inclusion) and the follow up consultation where the outpatients' examinations results will be recorded).

A better understanding of pelvic dysfunctions, according to neurological systematization and type of spinal dysraphism, will help to focus the evaluation and therapeutic managements on patients with spinal dysraphism at risk of uronephrological complications.

What participants receive

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

  • Individualisation of uronephrological complications risk factorsOther

    description of pelvic disorders in terms of clinical presentation, electrophysiology/urodynamics/anorectal manometry patterns, urethrocystography/urinary ultrasound/defecography results and urinary complications (infections, vesicoureteral reflux), depending on the dysraphim's type and level of injury and to correlate these parameters to the uronephrological risk factors and complications recorded.

What is being measured

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

  1. sexual dysfunctions in term of spinal dysraphisms

    Sexual dysfonctions according the scale Men Health Sexual Questionnaire (MHSQ) score between 5 to 125 (no problem)

    Measured: 1 day

  2. patient quality of life

    questionnaire "Qualiveen" (quality of life linked to health) to be completed by patient (score between 0 (no problem) to 4)

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Urinary disorders

    Urinary Symptom Profile (USP) questionnaire (score between 0 (no problem) to 39)

    Measured: 1 day

  4. cognitive disorders

    Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) scale (score between 0 to 30, normal between >=26)

    Measured: 1 day

  5. pelvic disorders description thanks to exams

    urinary echography, anorectal manometry and defecography will be performed in order to described pelvic disorders n.

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. urinary complications

    number of infections, vesicoureteral reflux

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Spinal Dysraphism, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 2 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Apr 2024. 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 France. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Maelys Teng, MD, MSc (0156017954, maelys.teng@aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

sexual dysfunctions in term of spinal dysraphisms (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 5 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 12 Apr 2024.
