NCT01388907

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinically the efficacy of the PREVADH® Film in the prevention of adhesions in gynaecologic surgery, and to assess post-operative complications related to adhesions and pregnancy rate after myomectomy by open surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Patients With Adhesions to Uterine Scars

    The primary endpoint was the assessment of adhesions to uterine scars and comprised the incidence (expressed per patient and per uterine scar), extent, and severity of adhesions observed during the second-look laparoscopy performed 10 to 20 weeks after the myomectomy. This assessment was made by the surgeon (investigator) on the one hand and by two independent surgeons who reviewed the video recordings on the other hand.

    10 to 20 weeks post surgery

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Fertility

    3 years

  • Adnexal Adhesions

    10 to 20 weeks post surgery

  • mAFS Abdominopelvic Adhesion Score

    10 to 20 weeks post surgery

Study Arms (2)

Prevadh film

EXPERIMENTAL

Patient randomized in this arm have been treated with Prevadh film applied on the uterine surgical sites, at the end of the myomectomy surgery to prevent post-surgey adhesion formation.

Device: Prevadh film

Ringer solution

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients randomized in the Ringer solution group have been treated with Ringer lactate solution directly applied to the uterine surgical sites at the end of the myomectomy surgery.

Other: Ringer lactate solution

Interventions

Ringer lactate solution was applied directly onto the uterine surgical sites at the end of the myomectomy surgery, to prevent post-surgical adhesion formation.

Also known as: Myomectomy by Laparotomy

Limitations and Caveats

the surgeons were not blinded to the patients' allocation group at second-look laparoscopy.Recruitment was stopped early. 2 data analyses have been performed over the study period for primary endpoint, without any error type I adjustment.
