Testing new surgical tools for women's laparoscopic gynecologic surgery
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares new, flexible surgical tools (Artisential instruments) used during robot-assisted or laparoscopic gynecologic surgery. Researchers want to see if these tools work well for hysterectomy or pelvic organ prolapse repair.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled to have a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) using robotic or laparoscopic surgery
- OR you are scheduled to have a sacrocolpopexy (pelvic organ prolapse repair) using robotic or laparoscopic surgery
- You are a suitable candidate for these procedures
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

This study checks whether an outpatient (same-day) approach to a specific prolapse repair surgery is safe and practical, using a double-mesh method with or without robotic help. You may be offered the surgery under guidance of the study team if you meet the health and medical safety criteria.
This trial studies a specific robotic surgical system during abdominal and pelvic surgeries. It may help doctors improve how these operations are done using minimally invasive techniques (smaller cuts).
This trial compares two types of minimally invasive surgery (robot-assisted vs. conventional laparoscopy) for removing the uterus in people with early-stage, low- to intermediate-risk endometrial cancer. The goal is to see which approach offers the best value and outcomes.
This trial studies robotic surgery technology for women who need a gynecologic procedure and are good candidates for the Intuitive Surgical system. It may help doctors improve how these surgeries are done, and it requires you to follow the study steps and consent to participate.
This trial tests new force feedback instruments in the da Vinci 5 robot during surgery. It aims to see if they help surgeons perform procedures more precisely for conditions like cancer or other diseases.
This trial is testing a newer, single-port robotic system (da Vinci SP) for staging surgery in endometrial cancer. It aims to see if this system is safe and effective for removing the uterus, ovaries, and possibly lymph nodes, with less scarring.
