Risk predictor for new urinary incontinence after prolapse surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study follows women undergoing pelvic organ prolapse repair who have no urinary incontinence before surgery. It uses telephone follow-ups at 3, 6, and 12 months to collect data and identify risk factors and anatomical features associated with new-onset stress urinary incontinence. The goal is to develop a predictive model that can help clinicians anticipate which patients are at higher risk. The study is conducted at Shanghai General Hospital with no listed collaborators and does not involve an experimental treatment. The design relies on case-control-like data to derive predictors for postoperative SUI.
