简要总结
To evaluate the perception of the effectiveness of Hidrafemme® gels, Vagidrat®, Lubrinat and Antrofi cream in improving vaginal moisture in postmenopausal women who are currently registered options most current and available in the market in order to assess the differences between them, subsequently conduct a clinical study larger.
详细描述
Before any procedure of the study, the researcher should have undertaken a detailed discussion on the Consent and Informed remedying any questions the patient may present. Then the principal investigator and the patient must sign all pages of the Consent and Informed (two-way), each one with a copy. Female patients aged above 40 years postmenopausal and who are diagnosed with vaginal dryness, will be invited to participate in this study. After the selection, through the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and signing the consent form Clarified, research participants will be evaluated by clinical examination (VHI), pH evaluation (using pH tape), questionnaire application IFSF and subjective evaluation of the patient. All the above procedures will be performed in own research center for the study team. The study in question has four (4) treatment groups with fourteen (14) patients each, totaling fifty-six (56) patients. The allocation of these patients will occur blind, parallel to the first group use the Hidrafemme, the second uses the Vagidrat, uses the third and fourth Lubrinat use the Antrofi. All groups conduct the use of those products, twice a week for four (4) consecutive weeks. After the addition, the research participant will receive the product under study and will be oriented as their dosage, correct application form and the records in the patient diary.
After the Visit 1 (initial) the research participant must return for another visit in person, Visit 2 (final), the research center, which will take place 28 calendar days after the date of Visit 1 (initial). During all the above visits, the participants research will be assessed by the principal investigator and will be conducted the subjective evaluation of the patient, VHI evaluation (attached), pH control and will fill the IFSF form (attached). At the final visit will be also evaluated the acceptability of the product and adherence to treatment through the patient diary. The adverse event occurrences will be evaluated during the final visit. If any research participant submit an adverse event, it will be accompanied by research center staff to its resolution. The variables related to the effectiveness of the product will be studied by VHI scale, which indicates the score of each item under study. The score should be evaluated for each variable. Daily application for registration throughout the period of four (4) weeks, and the product will be dispensed after the inclusion / randomization of the patient during the initial visit, sufficient to twenty-eight (28) days of treatment.

结局指标
主要结局
Categories VHI scale for intensity of vaginal moisture
时间窗: 28 days
The efficacy parameter: intensity of vaginal moisture; It will be measured by the VHI: 1 = no / inflamed surface; 2 = no / not inflamed surface; 3 = minimal, 4 = moderate, 5 = Normal. They will be described by mean and standard deviation or median and interquartile range, as well as minimum and maximum. If there is a normal distribution and equal variance will be held the Split-Plot ANOVA measures and where there are significant differences will be a post hoc Tukey and Dunnet. 95% confidence intervals for the mean difference will be calculated
次要结局
- Subjective patient evaluation(28 days)
- pH vaginal(28 days)
- Score the increase in Sexual Function Index Women(28 days)
- Acceptability of the product(28 days)
