Uphold Mesh for the Surgical Treatment of Uterine-predominant Prolapse

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Pelvic Organ Prolapse
Interventions
Device: UpholdTM LITE placement
Registration Number
NCT01559168
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the UpholdTM LITE mesh over a 12 month follow up period, using a composite outcome including a good anatomical correction for both anterior and apical compartments (stage 0 or 1), no prolapse (bulge) symptoms (answer "no" at question 3 of the PFDI-20) and no reintervention for recurrent prolapse of the anterior or apical compartment.

Detailed Description

Secondary objectives include the evaluation of the following:

* Change from baseline of POP-Q scoring at 6 weeks, 6 months and 12 months post procedure, including evolution of treated or non-treated posterior compartments.

* The proportion of patients with anatomical prolapse (C/D), but who are asymptomatic.

* Change from baseline of mean quality-of-life scores.

* Evaluation of mesh properties from procedure date through study period.

* Peri-operative and post-treatment pain score assessment comparing the various anesthesia regimes used (Visual Analog Scale).

* Assessment of patient subjective outcomes for overall treatment effects and satisfaction.

* Objective evaluation of mesh shrinkage by standardized ultrasound measurements.
