Scientific titleClincial comparison between the original TVT-O and a modified procedure (mini TVT-O) for the surgical treatment of female stress urinary incontinence: A randomised clinical trial with 1-year follow-up
Study acronymTVT-O versus mini TVT-O
Study objectivesA shorter transobturator tape placed inside-out with minimized dissection would result in similar cure rates as those obtained with the original inside-out transobturator procedure, but may result in less post-operative pain and complications.
Ethics approval(s)The Ethics Committee of University Hospital of Liege (Comité d'Ethique Hospitalo-Universitaire de Liège) approved on the 10th of October 2006 (ref: amendment #3 to EC approval # 2003/23)
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedFemale stress urinary incontinence
InterventionSurgical treatment: original inside-out transobturator tape (TVT-O™) versus a modification of the procedure, with no perforation of the obturator membrane and a shorter tape length. The procedure lasts approx 15 minutes.
The total duration of follow up is 12 months
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measure1. Objective and subjective cure of stress urinary incontinence at 1 year, measured by
1.1. Cough test (objective cure)
1.2. Measurement of Urinary Handicap (MUH), a validated self-administered questionnaire
2. Complication rates during a 1-year follow-up period, assessed by clinical examination and patient reporting at visits
Secondary outcome measuresIncidence and severity of postoperative pain at baseline, 1 day, 1, 6 and 12 months, measured by Visual Analogue Score (VAS) - inner thigh pain assessed for each side, left and right
Overall study start date01/01/2007
Completion date31/12/2008
