  • A Study to Evaluate the Incidence and Psychological Impact of Vaginal Cuff Dehiscence After Different Types of Hysterectomy Rochester, MN

    The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of cuff dehiscence in patients who have undergone total robotic laparoscopic hysterectomy vs. total vaginal hysterectomy, to identify risk factors for cuff dehiscence, and to study the impact of cuff dehiscence on a patient’s psychological well-being.

  • Anal Occlusion and SSI Reduction Mankato, MN

    The purpose of this study is to create a special preparation protocol for the vaginal and perineal area that would include an occlusive dressing over the anal orifice (Anal Occlusive Dressing-AOD). We do hypothesize that it would eliminate or significantly reduce cross contamination of the bowel content with the surgical site and hence reduce the risk of SSI.
