NCT ID NCT04586166
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two types of sling surgery for stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine with cough or sneeze) in women who are also having surgery for pelvic organ prolapse. One sling uses a single incision, the other uses two incisions. The trial will enroll 180 women and measure how bothersome their incontinence is after surgery.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Surgical sling (device)
- What this could lead to
- If one sling type works better, it could improve surgical choices for women needing both prolapse and incontinence repair.
- What could go wrong
- This is a non-inferiority trial, so it may only show that the newer sling is not worse, not better. Results may not apply to all women.
