Postoperative Vaginal Compression After Prolapse Surgery - an RCT
Starting soon · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Postoperative Care, Prolapse Genital, Urogynecologic Surgery
In brief
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if omitting postoperative vaginal compression (packing) can facilitate a more efficient recovery after elective surgery for uterovaginal prolapse. The main questions it aims to answer are: Will the omission of vaginal compression result in a non-inferior (unchanged) rate of prolapse recurrence within the first three months after surgery? Does the omission of vaginal compression lead to a shorter hospital stay and a faster return of normal bladder function? Researchers will compare a group that receives no postoperative vaginal compression to a control group that receives standard vaginal gauze packing for two hours to see if skipping the packing leads to shorter hospital stays and faster bladder emptying without increasing the risk of the prolapse returning.
