Trial summary

During childbirth, the recommendations have evolved to a restriction of episiotomy. This reduction results in an increase of superficial vaginal and perineal tears. These lesions are usually routinely sutured which often causes the onset of discomfort and pain in the immediate postpartum period. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Randomized Controlled Trial of the Effectiveness of Perineal Pain and Security of the Suture Led by the Result of Hemostasis Versus Manual Compression Routine Suture Perineal Tears of First Degree During Childbirth, ImSOLENCE Study

During childbirth, the recommendations have evolved to a restriction of episiotomy. This reduction results in an increase of superficial vaginal and perineal tears. These lesions are usually routinely sutured which often causes the onset of discomfort and pain in the immediate postpartum period. Gordon showed, in 1998, improved comfort and pain when the skin was not sutured perineal tears during the second degree. Others have compared different techniques in the same indications (separated points running suture, biological adhesive) without demonstrated impact. These studies were not interested in isolated perineal tears or first degree or the application of a simple manual compression with or without a suture according to the result of hemostasis.

Our objective is to evaluate the possibility of not suture the perineum of the first degree. The use of suture only result of bleeding not yielding to manual compression.

Our approach is guided by the principles of "primum non nocere" and discerning about the dogmatic systematization.

What participants receive

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

  • Suture of perineumProcedure or surgery

    suture of the tear to obtain hemostasis

  • hemostatis by digital compressionProcedure or surgery

    Digital compression of the tear to obtain hemostasis

Study groups in NCT02870712
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
suture directedExperimentalThe suture of the perineum is headed by obtaining hemostasis by digital compression 5 minutes; If hemostasis is obtained, the perineum will not be sutured. In case of failure of hemostasis, suture of the perineum will be realized.
Receives: Procedure: Suture of perineum; Procedure: hemostatis by digital compression
systematic sutureActive comparatorsystematic suture tears following current recommendations
Receives: Procedure: Suture of perineum

What is being measured

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

  1. Composite Outcome Measure for success defined by : - a negligible pain, - satisfactory healing, - no bleeding and infection of the perineum

    Measured: ten day after childbirth

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Suture of perineum and hemostatis by digital compression in people with Parturition and Delivery, Obstetric, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon 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 7 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 3 Aug 2021. 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?

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?

Composite Outcome Measure for success defined by : - a negligible pain, - satisfactory healing, - no bleeding and infection of the perineum (time frame: ten day after childbirth). 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 3 Aug 2021.
