Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Adult female patients with pelvic organ prolapse who are candidates for transvaginal surgical repair.

  • Subject is willing and able to comply with the follow-up regimen

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subject is pregnant or intends to become pregnant during the study

  • Subject has a history of pelvic organ cancer (e.g. uterine, ovarian, bladder, or cervical)
  • Subject has had prior or is currently undergoing radiation, laser therapy, or chemotherapy in the pelvic area
  • Subject has taken systemic steroids (within the last month), or immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory treatment (within the last 3 months)
  • Subject has a systemic connective tissue disease (e.g. scleroderma, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Marfan syndrome, Ehlers Danlos, collagenosis, polymyositis or polymyalgia rheumatica)
  • Subject has chronic systemic pain that includes the pelvic area or chronic focal pain that involves the pelvis
  • Subject has uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (DM)
  • Subject has a known neurologic or medical condition affecting bladder function (e.g. multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, or stroke with residual neurologic deficit)
  • Subject is seeking obliterative vaginal surgery as treatment for pelvic organ prolapse (colpocleisis)
  • Subject is not able to conform to the modified dorsal lithotomy position
  • Subject is currently participating in or plans to participate in another device or drug study during this study
  • Subject has a known sensitivity to polypropylene
  • Subject has had previous prolapse repair with mesh in the target compartment(s)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Recurrence of Prolapse
Time Frame: 36 Month
Recurrent prolapse is measured anatomically at the target compartment by leading edge of prolapse beyond the hymenal ring by POP-Q examination, or additional surgical treatment for pelvic organ prolapse in the target vaginal compartment(s), or patient reporting symptoms of vaginal bulging.
36 Month
Rate of device and procedure related adverse events
Time Frame: 36 Month
36 Month

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Recurrence of prolapse
Time Frame: 36 Month
Recurrent prolapse is measured anatomically by leading edge of prolapse in the target compartment at or beyond the hymenal ring by POP-Q examination, or additional surgical treatment for pelvic organ prolapse in the target vaginal compartment(s), or patient reporting symptoms of vaginal bulging.
36 Month
Rates of other adverse events
Time Frame: 36 months
36 months

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
