NCT02547155

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare the risk of being unable to urinate shortly after surgery, also called acute post-operative urinary retention (POUR) between spinal and general anesthesia in women who undergo outpatient pelvic organ prolapse with stress urinary incontinence surgery.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of postoperative urinary retention

    bladder emptying completeness after surgery

    within the first week after surgery

Study Arms (2)

Spinal anesthesia

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects randomized to spinal anesthesia will receive Bupivacaine 0.75%, 8-12.5 mg dose depending on estimated duration of surgery and anesthesiologist decision. In addition to spinal anesthesia, these subjects will possibly have concurrent administration of fentanyl, midazolam, and propofol so that they are mildy sedated or sleeping.

Procedure: Spinal anesthesia

General anesthesia

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects randomized to general anesthesia will receive propofol induction, in combination with a muscle relaxant and inhalational gas per anesthesia standard of care at our institution

Procedure: General anesthesia

Interventions

8-12.5 mg of bupivacaine will be administered for spinal anesthesia

Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Women over the age of 40
  • Women scheduled for pelvic organ prolapse surgery as well as concomitant incontinence sling surgery
  • Post-void residual \<150 cc prior to surgery
  • Surgery length of at least 1 hour
  • BMI \<40
  • ASA class 1-2

You may not qualify if:

  • Contraindications to surgery
  • Contraindications to outpatient surgery, and requiring inpatient stay for medical comorbidities. The decision for a required inpatient stay will be decided prior to surgery based on the recommendations of the patient's primary care physician or specialist, such as cardiology or pulmonology.
  • BMI \>40
  • ASA class 3 or 4 that would be a contraindiction to both spinal or general anesthesia
  • Evidence of voiding dysfunction or urinary retention on pre-operative urodynamics, including PVR \>150, or dyssynergic sphincter dyssynergia
  • Neurological diseases that can interfere with spinal anesthesia
  • Anticoagulation therapy within a week of surgery
  • History of back surgery that would prevent successful spinal anesthesia
  • History of back deformity, such as scoliosis that would prevent successful spinal anesthesia
