Sexual Fonction and Discomfort in Women After Midurethral Sling Surgery, Using PPSSQ
- Conditions
- Stress Urinary Incontinence
- Interventions
- Procedure: Midurethral sling surgery
- Registration Number
- NCT05527665
- Lead Sponsor
- University Hospital, Grenoble
- Brief Summary
Evaluation of the sexual quality of life of women who had a sub-urethral sling several years ago, using a recently validated questionnaire: the PPSSQ (Pelvi-Perineal Surgery Sexuality Questionnaire).
This questionnaire is specifically oriented for women who have undergone surgery for stress urinary incontinence or prolapse. It contains questions specific to post-surgical issues that are not present in other sexual quality of life questionnaires. The questionnaire will also be administered to a group of control women who have not had suburethral sling surgery in order to compare their responses to those of women who have had surgery.
The hypothesis is that the placement of a suburethral sling for stress urinary incontinence increases the quality of sexual life of the women.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Evaluate the sexual discomfort in the medium term in patients who have undergone surgery for stress urinary incontinence by placing a suburethral sling. 2 to 7 years after the surgery The primary endpoint of the research is the comparison of medians of the PPSSQ "discomfort and pain" score between women who underwent suburethral sling surgery and healthy female volunteers of the same age and menopausal status.
- Secondary Outcome Measures

To analyze the rate of non-sexually active patients after surgery, and the causes of this lack of sexuality. 2 to 7 years after the surgery Analyse of PPSSQ answers to question 1
To evaluate the quality of sexual life of patients who have undergone surgery for stress urinary incontinence using a suburethral sling. 2 to 7 years after the surgery Comparison of medians of the PPSSQ "sexual health" score between women with suburethral sling surgery and healthy female volunteers.
