Recovery After Prolapse Surgery Study
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tracks how well women recover after surgery for advanced pelvic organ prolapse. You will wear a small activity monitor before and after surgery to see how your activity level changes, and you'll follow a simple exercise plan to help your recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are planning to have surgery for apical prolapse (the top of the vagina) through a laparoscope, robot, or vagina (not a large belly cut).
- Your prolapse is at least stage 3, which is the most advanced stage.
- You are willing to wear an activity tracker (like a Fitbit) before and after surgery, and use a study app on your smartphone.
- You are willing to follow a moderate exercise program after surgery.
- Your hospital stay is expected to be 1 day or less after surgery.
- You can read and agree to the study information in English or Spanish.

This trial tests whether using vaginal estrogen before and after prolapse surgery helps improve recovery and long-term results. Women having apical suspension surgery (to support the top of the vagina) may benefit.
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 study looks at how people’s quality of life changes after treatment for pelvic organ prolapse, comparing conservative (non-surgical) and surgical options. It may help doctors understand which approach leads to better day-to-day well-being for similar patients.
This study looks at how well bladder control (urinary continence) works after vaginal surgery for pelvic organ prolapse. It will help doctors understand what to expect in the Spanish population.
This study looks at how well the pelvic floor (the muscles supporting your bladder, uterus, and bowel) recovers after a vaginal birth. It tests whether starting gentle exercises soon after delivery helps improve recovery.
This study helps doctors predict which patients may develop urinary incontinence (leakage) after surgery to repair pelvic organ prolapse (when pelvic organs drop into the vaginal canal). By identifying risk factors early, doctors may be able to better prepare patients and prevent this complication.
