Outcomes After Sacrocolpopexy With and Without Burch to Prevent Stress Urinary Incontinence in 3rd and 4th Degree Apical Uterine Prolapse. Randomized Controlled Trial
Abstract
Urinary incontinence will develop after prolapse repair in approximately one quarter of patients with advanced pelvic organ prolapse who remain continent despite significant loss of anterior vaginal and pelvic organ support. Many women with advanced pelvic organ prolapse who choose to undergo surgical management also choose to undergo continence surgery in order to prevent new onset urinary incontinence.
Conditions: Prolapse.
Primary outcome: the percentage of stress incontinence post operative.
Enrollment: 60 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 60 participants or records.
