Conventional multi-port laparoscopic hysterectomyActive comparator3-4 ports laparoscopic hysterectomy including LAVH, LH(a), or TLH
Receives: Procedure: Conventional laparoscopic hysterectomy

What is being measured

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

  1. Conversion rate

    Conversion means that events required additional port(s) or open laparotomy

    Measured: 1 week

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS)

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Postoperative pain

    Measured by numeric rating score (NRS)

    Measured: postop. 1 day, 1 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Single incision Laparoscopic hysterectomy and Conventional laparoscopic hysterectomy in people with Uterine Myoma and Uterine Adenomyosis, run by Samsung Medical Center at 8 sites in South Korea.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Feb 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in South Korea. 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.

What does this phase mean?

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Chi-Heum Cho, MD, PhD (c0035@dsmc.or.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Conversion rate (time frame: 1 week). 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 NCT01483417, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 22 Feb 2012.
