Hysterectomy versus uterine preservation for pelvic organ prolapse surgery: a prospective cohort study.

Background: One in 5 females will have surgery to treat pelvic organ prolapse in their lifetime. Uterine-preserving surgery involving suspension of the uterus is an increasingly popular alternative to the traditional use of hysterectomy with vaginal vault suspension to treat pelvic organ prolapse; however, comparative evidence with native tissue repairs remains limited in scope and quality.

Objective: To compare 1-year outcomes between hysterectomy-based and uterine-preserving native tissue prolapse surgeries performed through minimally invasive approaches.

Taking the Leap Toward Cost-Conscious Education in Obstetrics and Gynaecology: A Preliminary Randomized Controlled Trial.

Objective: Residents have a professional obligation with respect to the stewardship of health care resources, yet there is a paucity of research on how to improve residents' cost-awareness. Rising health care expenditures highlight a critical need to improve education related to this competency. This study aimed to test if an educational module can teach residents to make cost-conscious decisions and reduce health care spending.
