Pelvic floor muscle training interventions are commonly used by physiotherapists to manage prolapse. However, a Cochrane review found limited evidence to support the effectiveness of such interventions. Based on the findings of a successful feasibility study, this multi-centre randomised controlled trial will address the paucity of evidence. 556 symptomatic women with diagnosed prolapse will be enrolled in 16 UK centres and 1 New Zealand centre over 16 months and randomised to pelvic floor muscle training plus lifestyle advice, or to receive a lifestyle leaflet only. Principal measures of outcome are: prolapse symptoms, prolapse severity, and subsequent further treatment up to 12 months after trial entry.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* New attendee at outpatient gynaecology clinic\n* Any type of prolapse\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Stage 0 or IV prolapse\n* Women reporting no symptoms of prolapse\n* Previous treatment for prolapse (surgery or formal instruction in Pelvic Floor Muscle Training \\[PMFT,\\]unless completed more than 5 years ago, pessary, unless pessary removed more than 12 months ago)\n* Unable to comply with PFMT\n* women who have urogenital atrophy requiring treatment with local oestrogens (after an 8 week course of local oestrogen such women can be included);\n* Pregnant or less than 6 months post-natal\n* Unable to give informed consent'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00476892', 'acronym': 'POPPY', 'briefTitle': 'Multi-centre Randomised Controlled Trial of Pelvic Floor Muscle Training for Prolapse', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Glasgow Caledonian University'}, 'officialTitle': 'A Multi-centre Randomised Controlled Trial of a Pelvic Floor Muscle Training Intervention for Women With Pelvic Organ Prolapse', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'CZH/4/377'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'ISRCTN35911035'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'OTHER', 'label': '1', 'description': 'It consists of five outpatient appointments (weeks 0, 2, 6, 11 and 16) with a local trial physiotherapist at a trial centre.

Women are taught how to contract the muscles, and also how to contract and hold prior to an event that increases intra-abdominal pressure ("the Knack"). Pelvic floor muscles are assessed by vaginal examination and recorded on a dedicated form at each appointment thus determining the content of a single set of exercises for each woman. At least three sets of exercises daily is recommended. Women use an exercise diary to record compliance. Tailored advice is given on ways of reducing intra-abdominal pressure, e.g. advice on weight loss, chronic cough, heavy lifting and general exercise.', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Pelvic Floor Muscle Training']}, {'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': '2', 'description': 'Women allocated to the control group will be sent a lifestyle advice leaflet only, and will have no planned contact with the centre until their consultant review appointment at six months.
