Prevalence of pelvic organ prolapsed is high in Nepal. After prolapse surgery many patients are affected with incontinence. Incontinence has physical, social and mental effect to the individual. This study is designed to know the role for mid urethral sling during vaginal prolapse surgery to decrease the rate of incontinence after the surgery.
Aim: To de termine the effect of mid urethral sling in reducing postoperative incontinence after vaginal prolapse surgery.
General Objectives: To compare the risk of de novo postoperative incontinence between prolapsed surgery with mid urethral sling versus no sling.
Specific Objectives: to compare the change in score of BFLUTS-SF (Bristol Female lower urinary tract symptoms- sexual function) and UDI-6 (Urinary distress inventory-6) pre and post surgery between the two groups.
Research Hypothesis: The use of mid urethral sling after vaginal prolapse surgery has role in reduction of postoperative incontinence.
Materials & Methods:
(e) Expected sample size: 54 Sample size calculation: Previous study done by Control groups: Patient undergoing vaginal prolapse surgery only without mid urethral sling. There will be small incision in the suprapubic region that mimics the TVT incision.
(f) Probable duration of study: one and half year (g) Setting: BPKIHS, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology (h) Parameter/Variables to be applied/ measured: Age, BMI, POPQ (Pelvic organ prolapse quantification) stage, menopause, ESST (Empty supine stress test).
(i) Outcome measures: LUTS score, UDI-6 score, SUI (stress urinary incontinence), Voiding dysfunction, dyspareunia, satisfaction, Complications like bladder injury, hemorrhage.
(j) Rationale for statistical methods to be employed: attached (k) Ethical clearance: Study will be started after getting clearance from the IRC (Institutional review committee) of BPKIHS .
(l) Permission to use copyright questionnaire/Proforma: Pre designed Proforma and questionnaire will be used to collect the data. The internationally valid questionnaire in English will be validated in Nepali language first and then it will be used.
(m) Maintain the confidentiality of subject: The confidentiality of the patients will be maintained throughout the research.

If patient gives consent and falls on selection criteria (inclusion and exclusion), she will be enrolled for randomization. Written informed consent will be taken. Computer generated simple randomization will be done.filled. POP-Q, Occult SUI and ESST will be checked and noted. This will be done by one of the researcher. Surgery will be performed by one of the researcher. Both Group I and Group II patients will undergo vaginal hysterectomy with McCall's culdoplasty and anterior repair with or without posterior repair according to the need. Patient who falls in Group I will undergo midurethral sling with tension free vaginal tape (TVT).
Patient will be followed up at 3 and 6 months. The primary outcome of the study will be the difference in SUI. Secondary outcomes will be BFLUTS AND udi-6 SCORE, voiding dysfunction, dyspareunia, patient satisfaction and complications during surgery.
