Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcome of tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) procedure in women with urodynamic stress incontinence diagnosed as having intrinsic sphincteric deficiency (ISD). The combination of a maximal urethral closure pressure < 20 cm H2O and a Valsalva leak point pressure < 60 cm H2O was considered as diagnostic of ISD. Subjects with detrusor overactivity on preoperative urodynamics were excluded. A total of 35 patients with both low closure pressure and leak point pressure were enrolled. Bladder perforation occurred in three (8.6%) cases. Postoperative urinary voiding difficulties occurred in nine (25.7%) women. Two patients underwent surgical detension of the tape, with complete resolution of urinary retention and no relapse of incontinence. Women with postoperative voiding dysfunction had a significantly lower detrusorial pressure at the peak flow on preoperative urodynamics compared to those who voided efficiently after TVT. The mean (range) follow-up time was 12.5 months (3-36). The objective cure rate for stress incontinence was 91.4%. Two of the three (66%) patients in whom the TVT procedure failed had a fixed urethra. De novo urge incontinence was found in five (14.3%) patients.

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to evaluate whether antibiotic prophylaxis with a single dose of prulifloxacin after tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) procedure decreases catheter-associated urinary tract infections (UTIs). Patients undergoing TVT procedure receiving a single dose of prulifloxacin (600 mg) 10 h before catheter removal (n = 54) were compared with historical controls who have had no treatment (n = 60). All patients had an indwelling urethral catheter in situ for 24 h. Urine specimens for culture were collected preoperatively, before Foley removal, and 7 days postoperatively in both groups. Main outcome measures were significant bacteriuria and symptomatic UTI at catheter removal and 1 week postoperatively. No patient had a positive urine culture in the prulifloxacin group compared with 14 (23.3%) in the control group at catheter removal (P = 0.0001). Ten out of 14 (71.4%) women with a positive catheter urine culture had a symptomatic UTI. One week after surgery no difference was found in the rate of significant bacteriuria between groups. Our data suggest that a prophylactic single dose of prulifloxacin could help to reduce the rate of symptomatic and asymptomatic UTIs after short-term urethral catheterization in women undergoing TVT procedure.

Abstract

Background: Previous studies reported that C-reactive protein (CRP), an acute phase protein, is present in amniotic fluid (AF) and fetal urine. Elevated AF-CRP levels have been associated with adverse pregnancy outcome such as preterm delivery and neonatal infection. Although it is known that adult kidneys normally do not excrete CRP, it has not been investigated whether there is CRP urine excretion immediately after birth. Therefore, we have conducted a study to explore if early neonatal urine contains CRP.

Abstract

Background: C reactive protein (CRP) has been found in amniotic fluid (AF) and fetal urine. Elevated levels of AF-CRP have been associated with preterm birth and neonatal infection. Increased AF-CRP levels have been found at the time of genetic amniocentesis in cases which developed preeclampsia later in gestation. The aim of this study was to explore whether small for gestational age neonates (SGA) excrete more CRP.
