About this study

Official title: Long-term Follow-up of Vaginal Mesh Procedures for Female Cystocele

This study aimed to evaluate primarily the functional outcomes and secondly the morphological outcomes for women who had received standard managements for cystocele at mediate-term follow-up.

Read the detailed description

Pelvic organ prolapsed (POP) is an important health issue for women all over the world, with cystocele being the commonest type of POP. The side effects related to cystocele include voiding dysfunction, urinary retention, urinary tract infection, hydroureter, or hydronephrosis. The management for cystocele can be classified as non-surgical and surgical methods. Non-surgical methods comprise pelvic floor muscle exercise and vaginal pessaries, while surgical methods can be divided as conventional operations and operations applying mesh augmentation. Conventional surgeries for cystocele such as anterior colporrhapy have high surgical failure rates and complications including vaginal shortening or vaginal stenosis. Operations applying mesh augmentation are becoming the mainstream in the surgeries for cystocle. The Perigee System (American Medical Systems, Minnetonka, MN, USA), which has been approved by American FDA and Taiwan DOH in treating female cystocele, have promising short-term surgical outcomes. However, long-term reports incorporating both functional and morphological outcomes are lacking in the literatures. This study aimed to evaluate primarily the functional outcomes and secondly the morphological outcomes for women who had received standard managements for cystocele at mediate-term follow-up.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cystocele, run by Cathay General Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 inclusion and 5 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 22 Jul 2020. 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 Taiwan. 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?

POP-Q Ba point (time frame: Preoperative, as well as postoperative 3 months, 12 months, and then anuuanlly). 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 22 Jul 2020.
