Patient-reported Outcome After Sling Insertion Using the Incontinence Outcome Questionnaire (IOQ)

Completed
Conditions
Stress Urinary Incontinence
Registration Number
NCT01042275
Lead Sponsor
University of Zurich
Brief Summary

Midurethral tapes are by now standard procedure in the surgical treatment of women with stress urinary incontinence. While the retropubic TVT is well documented with long-term results up to 11 years and continence rates of 90 %, the published data for the transoburator tapes (TO) cover follow-up of 3 years only. So far, all tapes establish continence effectively. Recently, the detailed 27-item Incontinence Outcome Questionnaire (IOQ) was constructed to assess patient-reported outcome and quality of life after insertion of a midurethral tape and validated for the German language. The aim of this study was to evaluate patient-reported mid- and long-term outcome after insertion of tension-free vaginal tape (TVT), transobturator sling, outside-in (TOT) and tension-free transobturator tape, inside-out (TVT-O).
