Official title

Outcomes Following Vaginal Prolapse Repair and Mid Urethral Sling (OPUS) Trial

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Pelvic organ prolapse is common among women with a prevalence that has been estimated to be as high as 30%. Prolapse may be corrected by surgery using either a vaginal or abdominal incision. Some women develop stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after surgery. A prior randomized trial has shown that use of a Burch sling at the time of an abdominal sacrocolpopexy decreases the risk of urinary incontinence; however, the benefit of adding an anti incontinence procedure to prevent SUI at the time of prolapse surgery performed via a vaginal approach is unclear. Thus, the objective of the Outcomes following vaginal Prolapse repair and mid Urethral Sling (OPUS) trial is to determine whether prophylactic treatment with Tension-free Vaginal Tape (TVT)® at the time of prolapse surgery done via a vaginal approach is effective in preventing urinary incontinence.
