Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this study is to evaluate whether polyethylene glycol 3350 (PEG3350) versus senna is better at relieving postoperative constipation after urogynecologic surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are:

What number of patients taking PEG3350 have obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS), a form of constipation, vs those taking senna in the week after urogynecologic surgery? What patient-level and procedure-level characteristics are associated with postoperative ODS, in patients taking PEG3350 vs senna? participants will: Take their randomized medication daily for seven days after surgery Fill out an ODS questionnaire before and one week after surgery Complete a daily bowel diary for 7 days after surgery

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether polyethylene glycol 3350 (PEG3350) versus senna is superior in the setting of postoperative constipation after urogynecologic surgery. This is a randomized controlled trial with the aim of comparing PEG3350 vs senna as postoperative recommended treatment for obstructive defecation constipation. Our hypothesis is that senna decreases the proportion of women with obstructive defecation constipation compared to use of PEG3350 after urogynecologic surgery. Women 18 years of age and older undergoing surgery for pelvic organ prolapse, stress urinary incontinence or both by the Department of Urogynecology at St. Joseph's Health Hospital, will be randomized to one of two study arms: senna or PEG3350. Arm 1: Polyethylene Glycol 3350, 17g, daily, oral. Arm 2: Senna (Sennosides) 8.6mg, 2 tablets daily, oral (up to 4 tablets twice a day). Interventions would be administered after surgery on postoperative day #0 and continue for 7 days total.
