About

Compare the effectiveness of bethanechol chloride and early bladder training for prevention of bladder dysfunction after radical hysterectomy in cervical cancer stage IB - IIA.

Full description

Cervical cancer is the third most common cancer in women worldwide, after breast and colorectal cancer. Molecular biology has firmly established a causal relationship between persistent infection with high risk human papilloma virus (HPV) genotypes and cervical cancer.

Cervical cancer stage IB1 and selected IIA 1 lesions without extensive vaginal involvement can be treated with either RH and pelvic lymph node dissection (PLD) or primary chemoradiation.

Bladder dysfunction is the most common complication after radical hysterectomy. The incidence is approximate 10-80 %. Management of bladder dysfunction is continuous urethral catheterization or clean intermittent self-catheterization. Prolonged urethral catheterization may increase the risk of urinary tract infection.

Early postoperative bladder training that consist of a scheduled clamping trans-urethral catheter every 3 h and unclamping trans-urethral catheter 15 min during the entire day.

Bethanechol chloride is a cholinergic drug and may enhance the detrusor muscle contraction, resulting in higher maximum flow rate, and lower postvoid residual urine.

This study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of bethanechol chloride and early bladder training for prevention of bladder dysfunction after radical hysterectomy in cervical cancer stage IB - IIA.

56 participants in 4 patient groups

A

Experimental group

Description:

* Ucholine(Bethanechol chloride, 10 mg) 2 tablets oral tid, ac Start on 3rd - 5th postoperative day * In bethanechol chloride arm arm should be vital signs were monitored every 30 minute on first hour then every 4 hours on first day. Any adverse event were recorded. * Remove urethral catheter on 5thpostoperative day. Void volume and postvoid residual urine were record. Intermittent urethral catheterization was used to measure postvoid residual urine. If postvoid residual urine was more than 100 cc in two consecutive measurement, the urethral catheter was reinserted, and medication would be continue until the catheter cloud be removed but medication were not given for more than 1 month. Postvoid residual urine, urinalysis were evaluated at 1 month postoperative

Treatment:

Drug: bethanechol chloride

B

Experimental group

Description:

* Early bladder training Start on 3rd - 5th postoperative day * Remove urethral catheter on 5th postoperative day. Void volume and postvoid residual urine were recorded. Intermittent urethral catheterization was used to measure postvoid residual urine. If postvoid residual urine was more than 100 cc in two consecutive measurement, the urethral catheter was reinserted, and medication would be continue until the catheter cloud be removed but medication were not given for more than 1 month. Postvoid residual urine, urinalysis were evaluated at 1 month postoperative

Treatment:

Device: early bladder training

C

Experimental group

Description:

* Early bladder training and Ucholine(Bethanechol chloride, 10 mg) 2 tablets oral tid, ac Start on 3rd - 5th postoperative day * should be vital signs were monitored every 30 minute on first hour then every 4 hours on first day. Any adverse event were recorded. * Remove urethral catheter on 5th postoperative day. Void volume and postvoid residual urine were recorded. Intermittent urethral catheterization was used to measure postvoid residual urine. If postvoid residual urine was more than 100 cc in two consecutive measurement, the urethral catheter was reinserted, and medication would be continue until the catheter cloud be removed but medication were not given for more than 1 month. Postvoid residual urine, urinalysis were evaluated at 1 month postoperative

Treatment:

Other: early bladder training and bethanechol chloride

D

Other group

Description:

-Remove urethral catheter on 5th postoperative day. Void volume and postvoid residual urine were recorded. Intermittent urethral catheterization was used to measure postvoid residual urine. If postvoid residual urine was more than 100 cc in two consecutive measurement, the urethral catheter was reinserted, and medication would be continue until the catheter cloud be removed but medication were not given for more than 1 month. Postvoid residual urine, urinalysis were evaluated at 1 month postoperative

Treatment:

Other: no early bladder training and no bethanechol chloride
