Brief Summary

The Colpopexy and Urinary Reduction Effort (CARE) trial is a research study designed to evaluate whether the addition of a second surgical procedure in addition to a procedure for female pelvic organ prolapse (POP) affects the rates of urinary incontinence. This study will follow women in the CARE study for 10 years from the time of the surgery to compare success and complication rates in the two groups. Recruitment into this study is open only to women that already participated in CARE. Recruitment into CARE is closed.

  • Number of Participants Considered as Failures For Urinary Incontinence Using the Incontinence Severity Index

    Failure is indicated by a score of 3 or greater on the Incontinence Severity Index (formerly called Hunskaar). The score is calculated as the product of the answers to two incontinence-related questions resulting in a range from 0 to 12 (higher scores indicating more severe symptoms). A score of 3 or greater corresponds to a severity classification of moderate, severe, or very severe.
