Evaluation of the Relationship Between Vaginal and Lower Urinary Tract Microbiomes and Infection After Hysterectomy

NCT02751073 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 25

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to learn more about the microbes (bacteria) that live in the vagina and the bladder. The investigators are doing this research study to understand the relationship between microbes (the microbiome) and the occurrence of urinary tract infection following surgical removal of the uterus and pelvic organ prolapse repair. The investigators expect Lactobacillus and Gardnerella will be the dominant organisms for most women. Non-Lactobacillus dominant microbiome communities will be more common in women who ultimately develop postoperative urinary tract infection.
