Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Background Rectovaginal endometriosis accounts for 5-10% of cases of endometriosis and constitutes one of the forms of deep infiltrating endometriosis. . Deep infiltrating endometriosis involving the bowel is most frequently encountered in the rectovaginal septum and is considered to be the most severe form of the disease and the most difficult to treat surgically owing to its invasive nature. There are currently no studies on this topic pertaining to a South African context. Study Objective To document the outcomes in 112 patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for rectovaginal endometriosis. Methods A retrospective audit of 112 women undergoing laparoscopic surgery for rectovaginal endometriosis at Vincent Pallotti's Aevitas Fertility Clinic was undertaken. Eligibility was established by identifying women from a surgical database based on medical aid coding as well as a review of individual case notes. Patients were telephonically contacted to gather any missing information and to assess further outcomes. Design Classification Study number S11/11/036. This study was approved by the Health Research Ethics Committee at Stellenbosch University and was conducted according to ethical guidelines and principles of The International Declaration of Helsinki, South African Guidelines for Good Clinical Practice and the Medical Research Council (MRC) Ethical Guidelines for Research. Setting Vincent Pallotti’s Aevitas Reproductive Medicine Clinic Patients 112 consecutive patients suffering from rectovaginal endometriosis Interventions: Laparoscopic surgery for treatment of deep infiltrating, namely rectovaginal endometriosis Measurements and Main Results Primary outcome: Complications of laparoscopic surgery for rectovaginal endometriosis included one patient requiring a blood transfusion (0,9%), three cases of rectovaginal fistula (2,7%), two bowel injuries (1,8%)-detected and managed intra-operatively , one ureteric injury (0,9%), one pelvic abscess (0,9%) and the need for three urgent re-operations (2,68%). Secondary outcome: Of the 71 patients desiring fertility 39 (54,9%) fell pregnant of which 27 (69,2%) were spontaneous. Conclusion To our knowledge this is the first study assessing surgical outcomes in the management of deep infiltrating endometriosis from South Africa. These outcomes are in keeping with complication rates quoted in the international literature. Most of the surgery was performed using the shaving technique, in keeping with international trends, whilst fourteen cases required the performance of a segmental resection owing to extensive disease. In trained hands laparoscopic surgery is a valid management option in the management of rectovaginal endometriosis.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Agtergrond Vyf tot tien persent van alle endometriose gevalle kan toegeskryf word aan rektovaginale endometriose. Dit word beskou as een van die vorme van diep infiltrerende endometriose. Diep infiltrerende endometriose van die derm kom meestal in die rektovaginale septum voor en word as die ernstigste vorm van die siekte beskou. Dit is die moeilikste om chirurgies te behandel weens sy indringende aard. Daar is tans geen studies beskikbaar oor hierdie onderwerp in die Suid-Afrikaanse konteks nie. Doel van die studie Om die uitkomste te dokumenteer van 112 pasiënte wat laparoskopiese chirurgie vir rektovaginale endometriose ondergaan het. Metodes 'n Retrospektiewe oudit is by Vincent Pallotti se Aevitas Fertiliteitskliniek gedoen van 112 vroue wat laparoskopiese chirurgie vir rektovaginale endometriose ondergaan het. Geskikte pasiënte is geïdentifiseer vanaf 'n chirurgiese databasis gebaseer op mediese kodering, sowel as vanaf 'n oorsig van pasiënt notas. Pasiënte is telefonies genader om ontbrekende inligting in te samel en verdere uitkomste te evalueer. Klassifikasie Ontwerp Studie nommer S11/11/036. Hierdie studie is deur die Gesondheids Navorsing Etiese Komitee van die Universiteit van Stellenbosch goedgekeur en uitgevoer volgens die etiese riglyne en beginsels van die Internasionale Verklaring van Helsinki, Suid-Afrikaanse Riglyne vir Goeie Kliniese Praktyk en die Mediese Navorsingsraad (MNR) se Etiese Riglyne vir Navorsing. Instelling Vincent Pallotti se Aevitas Reproduktiewe Medisyne Kliniek Pasiënte 112 agtereenvolgende pasiënte met rektovaginale endometriose. Ingrepe: Laparoskopiese chirurgie vir die behandeling van diep infiltrende, rektovaginale endometriose. Resultate Primêre uitkoms: Komplikasies van laparoskopiese chirurgie vir rektovaginale endometriose het ingesluit: een pasiënt wat 'n bloedoortapping benodig het (0,9%), drie gevalle van rektovaginale fistels (2,7%), twee dermbeserings (1,8%) - intraoperatief gediagnoseer en herstel, een ureter besering (0,9%), een bekkenabses (0,9%) en drie dringende herhaal operasies (2,68%). Sekondêre uitkoms: Van die 71 pasiënte wat fertiliteit verlang het: 39 (54,9%) het swanger geraak, waarvan 27 (69,2%) spontaan was. Gevolgtrekking Sover ons kennis strek, is dit die eerste Suid-Afrikaanse studie waar daar na die chirurgiese uitkomste in die behandeling van diep infiltrerende endometriose gekyk is. Hierdie uitkomste stem ooreen met internasionale literatuur in terme van komplikasie syfers. Die meeste van die operasies is uitgevoer met behulp van die skeer-tegniek, in ooreenstemming met internasionale tendense, terwyl veertien gevalle segmentele reseksies vereis het weens uitgebreide siekte. In goed opgeleide hande is die laparoskopiese behandeling van rektovaginale endometriose ‘n geldige behandelings opsie.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Aims of the study Urodynamic studies (UDS) have been suggested to be performed as part of the pre-operative work-up of patients undergoing prolapse surgery. Some women with POP have occult stress urinary incontinence (OSUI) and even if subjectively continent, have a higher incidence of developing de novo stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The aim of this study was to describe the outcome of a group of patients who had pre-operative UDS and manual prolapse reduction. Methods This was a retrospective descriptive study including all women who had prolapse surgery during the period January 2006 to December 2011. Patients received routine pre-operative UDS and manual reduction of prolapse, performed at maximum bladder capacity determined by UDS. Patients demonstrating urodynamic SUI or OSUI were offered a concomitant anti-incontinence procedure. Post-operative follow-up data included symptoms of SUI and clinical evidence of SUI. Results The final group consisted of 131 women. The mean age of the patients was 57 years (range 33 to 79) and parity 3.6 (range 0 to 7). The mean body mass index was 32 (range 19 to 53). Twenty-four (18.3%) women had demonstrable SUI on clinical examination at initial presentation in the clinic. At the time of urodynamic studies, forty patients (30.5%) had evidence of SUI determined by either UDS and/ or cough test in the standing position at maximum bladder capacity. Ninety-one women (69.5%) had no evidence of UI on UDS, of which 20(15.3%) demonstrated OSUI (SUI on manual reduction of prolapse at maximal bladder capacity determined by UDS). Of the 40 women with UI on UDS, 36 had 1-step surgery (combination of anti-incontinence procedure and prolapse repair) and 4 had prolapse surgery alone. Of the 20 women with OSUI on UDS, 16 had 1-step (combined) surgery and 4 prolapse surgeries only. Of the 4 who had prolapse surgery alone, 3 complained of post-operative SUI. In the group with no SUI on UDS and manual reduction of POP, 69 of the 71 women had follow-up data. Only 1 had demonstrable SUI on examination. The manual reduction test had a sensitivity of 42.9% and a specificity of 98.5% (95% CI, 92.0-99.9%). The positive predictive value was 75.0% (95% CI, 19.4-99.3%), with a high negative predictive value of 94.4% (95% CI, 86.2-98.8%). Conclusion The numbers in our study are too small to determine sensitivity and positive predictive value of UDS and manual prolapse reduction for the detection of OSUI. However, our data shows promise in identifying POP patients without OSUI, which is a complement of the hypothesis. We recommend that UDS can be performed pre-operatively in women undergoing prolapse surgery, to identify patients with urodynamic stress incontinence. Manual reduction of the prolapse at maximum bladder capacity can then be done to identify a subgroup of patients without OSUI. Future research is needed on the true predictive value of reduction stress testing with larger numbers.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Doel van die studie Urodinamiese studies (UDS) word voorgestel as deel van die pre-operatiewe ondersoeke voor prolaps chirurgie gedoen word. Sommige vroue met genitale prolaps het verborge druklek, en selfs as hulle subjektief kontinent is, het hulle ‘n groter insidensie van de novo druklek. Die doel van die studie was om die uitkoms van ‘n groep pasiënte wat pre-operatiewe UDS en manuele prolaps reduksie gehad het, te beskryf. Metodes Die studie was ‘n retrospektiewe beskrywende studie. Al die pasiënte wat prolapse chirurgie in die tydperk Januarie 2006 tot Desember 2011 gehad het, is ingesluit. UDS en manuele prolaps reduksie tydens maksimale blaaskapasiteit, bepaal deur UDS, was deel van die roetine pre-operatiewe ondersoeke. In die gevalle waar urodinamiese druklek of verborge druklek demonstreer is, is die opsie van ‘n meegaande prosedure vir kontinensie tydens prolaps chirurgie aangebied. Post-operatiewe opvolg inligting het simptome van druklek en kliniese bewys van druklek ingesluit. Resultate Die finale groep was 131 vroue reikwydte. Die gemiddelde ouderdom van die pasiënte was 57 jaar (reikwydte 33 - 79) en pariteit 3.6 (reikwydte 0 - 7). Die gemiddelde liggaamsmassa indeks was 32 (reikwydte 19 - 53). Vier-en-twintig (18.3%) vroue het aantoonbare druklek gehad met kliniese ondersoek tydens die eerste kliniek afspraak. Tydens UDS het 40(30.5%) pasiënte druklek getoon tydens UDS en/ of hoestoets in die staande posisie teen maksimale blaaskapasiteit. Een-en-negentig (69.5%) het geen tekens van urinêre inkontinensie tydens UDS demonstreer nie, waarvan 20(15.3%) verborge druklek demonstreer het (druklek met reduksie van prolapse tydens maksimale blaaskapasiteit, bepaal deur UDS). Veertig pasiënte het urodinamiese druklek gehad, waarvan 36 een-stap chirurgie (‘n kombinasie van prolaps herstel en meegaande kontinensie prosedure) en 4 prolaps chirurgie alleenlik gehad het. Uit die 20 vroue met verborge druklek tydens UDS, het 16 een-stap (kombinasie) chirurgie en 4 prolaps chirurgie alleen gehad. Uit die 4 wat prolaps chirurgie alleen gehad het, het 3 post-operatiewe klagtes van druklek gehad. In die groep wat geen inkontinensie tydens UDS en manuele prolaps reduksie gehad het nie, het 69 van die 71 vroue opvolg data gehad. Druklek kon net by een pasiënt met ondersoek demonstreer word. Die manuele reduksie toets het ‘n sensitiwiteit van 42.9% en ‘n spesifisiteit van 98.5% (95% CI, 92.0-99.9%) gehad. Die positiewe voorspellingswaarde was 75.0% (95% CI, 19.4-99.3%), en die negatiewe voorspellingswaarde was 94.4% (95% CI, 86.2-98.8%). Gevolgtrekking Die getalle in ons studie was te min om te bepaal wat die sensitiwiteit en positiewe voorspellingswaarde van UDS and manuele prolaps reduksie is om verborge druklek te demonstreer. Die belowende data om pasiënte te identifiseer met genitale prolaps sonder verborge druklek (‘n kompliment van die hipotese). UDS kan pre-operatief gedoen word in pasiënte wat prolapse herstel chirurgie benodig, om pasiënte met urodinamiese druklek te identifiseer. Manuele reduksie van die prolaps tydens maksimum blaas kapasiteit kan dan volg, om ‘n subgroep van pasiente sonder verborge druklek, uit te ken. Verdere navorsing, met groter getalle word benodig om die werklike voorspellende waarde van die reduksie toets te ondersoek.

Full textThirty-one incubator humidification and 60 non-humidification period infants were compared. Mean gestational age was 25.83 weeks for both groups. Mean highest serum sodium values were 143.5 (SD 9.4) and 152.9 (SD 4.9) mEq/l respectively (p < 0.001). Differences persisted after adjustment for confounding by age of placement in incubators, and in spite of fluid reduction in the D humidification period. Of infants with umbilical lines 2/16 and 33155 respectively attained serum potassium measurements over 6.9 mEq/l (p = .04). Overhydration outcomes did not differ, but power was limited and confounding was problematic for these analyses.
In summary, incubator humidification is associated with decreased hypernatremia and hyperkalemia in very premature infants.
McAllister, Stacy L. "Peripheral neural sprouting contributes to endo-induced vaginal hyperalgesia in a rat model of endometriosis." Thesis, The Florida State University, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3681750.
Full textEndometriosis, defined by ectopic growths of uterine tissue, is considered an enigma because it is unknown how or even if these abnormal growths contribute to the painful conditions including dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, and chronic pelvic pain that often accompany the disease. Many clinicians and biomedical scientists assume that the amount of ectopic growth (cysts) predicts the presence or severity of pain symptoms, even though considerable evidence suggests that this assumption is unwarranted. Studies from our laboratory using a rat model of surgically-induced endometriosis (ENDO) demonstrated for the first time that the cysts develop a sensory and sympathetic nerve supply. This discovery gave rise to the hypothesis that this newly-sprouted innervation of the cysts is a significant contributor to the development (i.e., generation) and maintenance of painful symptoms. One of these common symptoms, studied here, is vaginal hyperalgesia (often called dyspareunia in women). The purpose of this dissertation was to use a combination of immunohistochemical, physiological, and behavioral methods to test various aspects of this hypothesis.
In the first study, the developmental time course of cyst innervation (sensory and sympathetic) and ENDO-induced vaginal hyperalgesia was examined over a 10 week period post-ENDO. It was found that rudimentary innervation appears within the cysts at 2 weeks post-ENDO, and becomes active at 3 weeks post-ENDO. Between 4 and 5 weeks post-ENDO, vaginal hyperalgesia becomes significant, but is highly variable as the innervation increases and approaches maturity. By 8 to 10 weeks post-ENDO the cyst innervation and hyperalgesia have both matured completely, plateaued and stabilized. Based on these findings, the developmental timeline was divided into three phases: INITIAL (1-2 weeks post-ENDO), TRANSITIONAL (4-6 weeks post-ENDO), and ESTABLISHED (8-10 weeks post-ENDO). In each phase, characteristics of the cyst innervation and vaginal hyperalgesia were found to be as follows: INITIAL, no innervation and no vaginal hyperalgesia; TRANSITIONAL, immature but active innervation and significant but highly variable hyperalgesia; ESTABLISHED, mature innervation and stabilized hyperalgesia both of which varied with the estrous cycle.
Then, in each of the three phases, the contribution of the cysts (and their innervation) to ENDO-induced vaginal hyperalgesia was tested, by removing the cysts and assessing the effect on the development and maintenance of the vaginal hyperalgesia. In the TRANSITIONAL phase, the relationship between the severity of ENDO-induced vaginal hyperalgesia and the innervation of the cysts, eutopic uterus, and vaginal canal was also assessed.
The effect of cyst removal on ENDO-induced vaginal hyperalgesia in the INITIAL phase prevented the development of vaginal hyperalgesia. In the TRANSITIONAL phase, cyst removal did not significantly alleviate the vaginal hyperalgesia developed prior to cyst-removal, but, prevented its future development. In the ESTABLISHED phase, cyst removal completely alleviated the vaginal hyperalgesia. Further, in the TRANSITIONAL phase, innervation of the cysts (sensory and sympathetic) and innervation of the vaginal canal (sympathetic only) significantly correlated with severity of ENDO-induced vaginal hyperalgesia.
Overall, results from these studies strongly support the general hypothesis that the innervation of the cysts contributes to ENDO-induced vaginal hyperalgesia. Specifically, the cyst innervation likely contributes to the development , severity, and maintenance of ENDO-vaginal hyperalgesia. Importantly however, the varying effects of cyst removal suggest that mechanisms by which the innervation operates to contribute to the vaginal hyperalgesia change during its progression through the three phases from peripheral sensitization to peripherally-independent then peripherally-dependent, hormonally-modulated central sensitization. Thus changes, which emerge most clearly in the TRANSITIONAL phase, could help explain the poorly-understood, clinically-challenging issue on how pain transitions from an acute to a chronic problem, not only in endometriosis but also in other chronic pain conditions.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE The purpose of the study is to establish the best method of wound closure with regards to patient satisfaction that includes wound cosmesis and pain. STUDY DESIGN One hundred patients were randomised to two groups for the closure of abdominal wounds; one group had subcuticular sutures and the other staples. They were followed up at 6 weeks. The primary outcome was patient satisfaction that includes wound cosmesis and pain. The secondary outcome was wound complications. RESULTS In women undergoing abdominal operations there was no difference as regards the patient satisfaction in both the groups, subcuticular sutures n= 51 vs. staples n=49 (P = 0.76). CONCLUSION Our study suggest that there is no statistically significant difference in the methods of wound closure, subcuticular sutures vs. staples as regards the patient satisfaction and the appearance of the scar leaving the decision in the hands of the surgeon to choose any method according to their own personnel preference and availability.

SAMEVATTING Ons projek het geen statisties beduidende verskil getoon ten opsigte van pasiënt tevredenheid of wond voorkoms met 6 weke opvolg nie. Dit laat dus die besluit by die chirurg om metode van velsluiting te kies afhangend van voorkeur en toerusting beskikbaarheid.
Johnson, Kenneth Clark. "First trimester anticonvulsant therapy and the risk of congenital malformation in the offspring of women with epilepsy." Thesis, McGill University, 1992. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=39555.
Full textIn the first meta-analysis the malformation risks associated with the use of anticonvulsants in general by women with epilepsy were quantified and clarified. Comparison of the congenital malformation risk among offspring of mothers with epilepsy with first trimester anticonvulsant exposure ("exposed") relative to offspring of non-epileptic parents yielded a summary estimate of relative risk (RR) of 2.6 (95% confidence interval (CI) 2.1-3.2). (All RR's in this abstract are study-stratified Mantel-Haenszel summary estimates.) Congenital malformation risk among the offspring of exposed women with epilepsy compared to unexposed women with epilepsy yielded a summary RR of 2.9 (CI = 2.0-4.2). No evidence of increased risk to unexposed women with epilepsy compared to non-epileptic women was evident (RR = 0.9, CI = 0.5-1.6).
In the second meta-analysis the risks associated with specific types of anticonvulsant therapy were qualitatively synthesized. The analysis demonstrated the inadequacies of many study reports--vague descriptions of methods often restricted assessment of study quality and incomplete reporting of results as largely responsible for restricting the analysis to 31 studies. Women with epilepsy treated with anticonvulsant monotherapy experienced increased risk of congenitally malformed children relative to both unexposed women with epilepsy (RR = 1.8, CI = 0.8-4.8), and unexposed non-epileptic women (RR = 2.5, CI = 1.8-4.0). Insufficient data were available to demonstrate statistically significant differences in malformation risk among specific commonly-used anticonvulsant monotherapies, although phenobarbital and carbamazepine appeared to have the lowest risks. Two-drug therapy was associated with a 20% increase in risk relative to monotherapy, but three-drug therapy was associated with more than twice the risk of one-drug therapy (RR = 2.2, CI = 1.3-3.7). Although the potential role of confounding by type and severity of epilepsy could not be evaluated, the analysis suggests that avoiding therapy with three or more anticonvulsants during the first trimester would be prudent.
The second component of the thesis was a large record linkage study utilizing information from the databases of Saskatchewan Health. An essentially population-based database of maternal drug use and reproductive outcomes was created which included 104,534 livebirths and 13,685 non-livebirth outcomes occurring between April 1977 and March 1984 linked to 299,152 prescriptions dispensed to the mothers in the year preceding the pregnancy outcome. A study of anticonvulsant use during pregnancy and birth outcome was completed using the created database. The study yielded results with respect to congenital malformation risk generally consistent with the conclusions or the meta-analyses.
Evaluation of the database of maternal drug use and reproductive outcomes raised questions about the utility of Saskatchewan Health's databases for pharmacoepidemiologic research into congenital malformations. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Full textIt is widely acknowledged that the preceptorship model is the primary mode of transmission of clinical knowledge within the profession of midwifery. It is natural that a power imbalance resides between preceptor and student; however, research has revealed that this inequality bears not only the potential for facilitating the conveyance of wisdom, but as well for mishandling. The concept of power within the student-preceptor relationship of Direct-Entry Midwives (DEMs) within the U.S. has not been explored through existing literature, despite the fact that increased understanding of this educational relationship may impact the institution of DEM education. Qualitative inquiry was conducted in collaboration with individuals who recently concluded a course of DEM education, and phenomenological analysis of the findings was performed. A summary of themes was compiled, eliciting insight into the nature of power within this relationship and as well the implications of this dynamic upon the profession.
