About this trial

The trans-obturator tape (TOT), which exhibits a satisfactory cure rate and a relatively diminished invasiveness, has been increasingly accepted as a surgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) patients. Nevertheless, in contrast to the well-recognized therapeutic benefit of the enhanced resistance to the bladder continence during urine storage, if the voiding function of the bladder adapts to the TOT-enhanced outlet resistance has not been adequately investigated. This study retrospectively assayed the voiding efficacy of each voiding cycle, to clarify if the thermodynamic efficacy of the bladder was modified in response to the TOT surgery.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Clinical diagnosis of stress urinary incontience

Have urodynamic investigations before and after operation.

Disqualifiers

Exclusion criteria will be a history of (1) cardiovascular, (2) neurological, or (3) other medical (such as diabetes or inflammation) problems as well as (4) patients who received a concomitant surgical procedure.

Trial design

Design model

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Urodynamic investigations before and after a trans-obturator tape protocol.

    Procedure/Surgery

    Urodynamic investigations (The urodynamic study included free uroflowmetry, postvoid residual, filling and voiding cystometry, and a urethral pressure profile. The filling cystometry and urethral pressure profile were performed with 37 degrees C normal saline similar to body temperature at an infusion rate of 80 ml/min.)

  • Urodynamic investigations before and after a tension-free vaginal tape-obturator (TVT-O)

    Procedure/Surgery

    Urodynamic investigations (stated above.)

  • Urodynamic investigations before and after a mini Arc protocol.

    Procedure/Surgery

    Urodynamic investigations (stated above)

  • Urodynamic investigations before and after an i-STOP mini adjustable sling protocol.

    Procedure/Surgery

    Urodynamic investigations (stated above)

  • Urodynamic investigations before and after an Solyx sling protocol.

    Procedure/Surgery

    Urodynamic investigations (stated above.)
