What this Trial Is About

Researchers are studying whether filling the bladder after laparoscopic hysterectomy surgery can help women recover faster and leave the post-anesthesia care unit sooner. The trial focuses on women undergoing planned laparoscopic hysterectomy as outpatient surgery and aims to compare two approaches to bladder management after surgery. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group will have 200 mL of sterile normal saline gently placed into the bladder through the catheter right after surgery before the catheter is removed during the operation. The other group will have the catheter removed immediately at surgery completion without bladder filling. Both groups will use the same size catheter during the procedure. During the study, researchers will record how long it takes each participant to urinate on their own and the time until they are discharged from care, monitoring these outcomes within three days after surgery. Participants will be observed closely to assess recovery times and any urinary complications following the different bladder treatments.

Screening

Duration - 2 to 4 weeks

Participants are screened for eligibility to participate in the trial.

Surgery and Immediate Post-operative Care

Duration - Day of surgery

Participants undergo laparoscopic hysterectomy surgery. Depending on group assignment, the bladder is either backfilled with 200 mL sterile saline before Foley catheter removal or the Foley catheter is removed without backfilling. Time to discharge and time to void are recorded after surgery.
