Study Summary

This trial will compare two methods for predicting and preventing a specific kind of urinary incontinence after childbirth.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women with a prolapse condition (anterior, uterine or apical) that's at least moderate in severity and needs surgery. It's not for those who are pregnant, don't speak English or French, have only posterior prolapse, can't attend follow-up visits, already have stress urinary incontinence, or had previous surgeries for incontinence or urethral repair.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The CREDE study is testing two methods to predict and prevent new-onset stress urinary incontinence after pelvic organ prolapse surgery: the intraoperative Crede manoeuver versus a preoperative cough test. The impact on patient outcomes and quality of life will also be assessed.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves diagnostic procedures rather than medications, traditional side effects like you might see with drugs aren’t expected. However, there may be discomfort associated with the tests themselves.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Intraoperative Crede manoeuverExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Method 1 (M1) consists in intraoperative Crede maneuver: After POP surgical reduction, the bladder will be retrograde filled with 300 ml of sterile water through a catheter that will then be removed. Brief and forceful suprapubic pressure will be applied. The test is positive if the surgeon visualizes a urinary leak. In this group, the intraoperative Crede manoeuver will determine if an anti-incontinence procedure should be performed concomitantly.
Group II: Preoperative prolapse reduction cough stress testActive Control1 Intervention
An examiner will perform the test preoperatively in the office, at the same visit as the recruitment. With a volume of 250-350 mL of urine in the bladder (confirmed by bladder scanner), a prolapse reduction cough stress test will be performed (posterior speculum blade for reduction). The test is positive if the examiner visualizes a urinary leak. In this group, the preoperative prolapse reduction cough stress test will determine if an anti-incontinence procedure should be performed concomitantly.
