How low can you go during laparoscopic prolapse surgery
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at a type of keyhole surgery called laparoscopic uterosacral suspension, which helps support the uterus or the top of the vagina. It aims to see how low your blood pressure can go during this surgery, which might help with recovery. If you're already planning this surgery, the study might be a good fit for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must be planning to have a laparoscopic uterosacral suspension (a keyhole surgery to support the uterus or the top of the vagina).
- You can also have other procedures at the same time, such as surgery for prolapse, removal of the uterus, or bladder leakage surgery.
- You cannot have any non-pelvic-floor surgery at the same time, and the surgery cannot be converted to open surgery.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study compares a surgical technique to treat uterine prolapse (when the uterus drops into the vaginal canal) by using stitches to attach it to a strong ligament in the pelvis. The goal is to see if this approach is a good option for women who want to keep their uterus and have no plans for future pregnancies.
This trial compares two surgical ways to support the uterus without removing it: a vaginal approach versus a laparoscopic (camera) approach. It may help you choose the method that best improves uterine prolapse symptoms and function.
This study compares two surgical techniques to repair pelvic organ prolapse (when organs like the bladder or bowel sag into the vaginal area). It aims to see which method gives better support with fewer risks, potentially offering you a lasting fix.
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 compares two surgical techniques to repair pelvic organ prolapse (when organs like the bladder or uterus push into the vagina). One method uses a synthetic mesh, and the other uses a natural stitch to hold the organs in place. Both surgeries involve removing the uterus (if you still have one), and the goal is to see which approach works better and has fewer complications.
This trial studies a surgical technique to support the vagina after hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) in women with pelvic organ prolapse—when pelvic organs shift downward and may cause pressure or bulging. The goal is to improve comfort and function using the body's own tissues.
