About This Bladder Perforation Study in Worcester

Retropubic midurethral slings are a common and effective treatment for stress urine incontinence. The trocar that is attached to the mesh material can hit the bladder which is called a perforation. While there are no known long-term adverse outcomes from trocar-induced bladder perforations, it can prolong operative time and bleeding. At academic institutions, it has been reported that trocar-induced perforations occurs in the range of 14-34% of the time. This study is a randomized controlled trial to see if an intervention can decrease trocar-induced bladder perforation rates. The primary outcome of this study is to measure trocar-induced bladder perforations in subjects undergoing a retropubic midurethral sling. Subjects would be randomized to either receive the hydrodissection in a standardized manner or to not receive it. Secondary outcomes include bothersome urinary symptoms, pain, estimated blood loss during surgery, and voiding trial results
