What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Subjective Cure of Urinary Incontinence at 12 Months After Surgery
Time Frame: 12 months
Composite outcome defined as absence of urinary incontinence as indicated by the Incontinence Severity Index score of 0 and the absence of any additional surgical or nonsurgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after the index surgery.
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Post Operative Complications at 6 Week or Less
Time Frame: 6 week
6 week
Long Term Complications > 6 Weeks
Time Frame: 6 weeks-12 months
6 weeks-12 months
Patient Global Impression Improvement
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
Incontinence Severity Index Score
Time Frame: 12 months
The incontinence severity index comprises the following two questions. How often do you experience urine leakage (0=never, 1=less than once a month, 2=one or several times a month, 3=one or several times a week, 4=every day and/or night)? How much urine do you lose each time (1=drops or little, 2=more)? The total score is the score for the first question multiplied by the score for the second question (0=dry, 1-2=slight, 3-4=moderate, 6-8=severe).
