Prospective Observational Study with Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROM) for the Treatment of Vaginal Prolapse: Pessary Vs. Surgery
Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Procedure, Device
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY
The rationale of the study is to investigate the results of a prolapse treatment in adult women with a vaginal prolapse. The investigators will investigate this by taking questionnaires in women undergoing a surgical prolapse repair and in women that are being treated by a vaginal pessary. The objective is to compare the results of the different methods with each other and to observe the evolution of the symptoms in patients undergoing surgery or pessary use. The investigators would also like to discover existing problems in pessary use and adverse effects.
