International audience. © 2024 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.Objective: To evaluate the health status and recovery of women after mid-urethral sling (MUS) revision in response to complications. Design: Cross-sectional study using a questionnaire sent to women from a registry. Setting: Twenty-two French surgical centres. Population: A total of 287 women from the VIGI-MESH registry responded, having undergone MUS revision for complications. Methods: Our sample of women were compared against a representative set of French women taken from the Eurostat database. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify clinical predictors for successful MUS revision. A qualitative analysis was carried out on free-text comments. Main outcome measures: Health status, defined by the Minimum European Health Module, and recovery, assessed by Patient Global Impression of Improvement. Results: The response rate was 76% (287/378), with 49% of the women (141/287, 95% CI 43%u201355%) reporting good health status, which was 8 points lower than that expected from the comparator French set (57%, 95% CI 55%u201358%). Overall, 53% (147/275, 95% CI 47%u201359%) of the women reported feeling much better after MUS revision. Just over one-third (35%, 95/275, 95% CI 29%u201340%) of respondents reported poor health with little or no improvement. Multivariate analysis showed that being operated on for pain at revision was associated with worse self-perceived health than being operated on for exposure (OR 0.6, 95% CI 0.14u20130.95); women with pre-existing comorbidity reported a poorer health status following MUS revision (OR 0.22, 95% CI 0.13u20130.38). Conclusions: Our results suggest that half of the women recovered good health status after MUS revision, whereas a proportion appeared to be seriously affected by an MUS complication despite the revision.
