Assessment of patient satisfaction with home vs office indwelling catheter removal placed for urinary retention after female pelvic floor surgery: a randomized controlled trial.

Background: Postoperative urinary retention is burdensome for patients. We seek to improve patient satisfaction with the voiding trial process.

Objective: This study aimed to assess patient satisfaction with location of indwelling catheter removal placed for urinary retention after urogynecologic surgery.

Universal Urogynecologic Consultation and Screening for Fecal Incontinence in Pregnant Women With a History of Obstetric Anal Sphincter Injury: A Cost-Effectiveness Analysis.

Importance: Obstetric anal sphincter injuries (OASIS) predispose for the development of fecal incontinence (FI), but management of subsequent pregnancy after OASIS is controversial.

Objective: We aimed to determine if universal urogynecologic consultation (UUC) for pregnant women with prior OASIS is cost-effective.

Study Design: We performed a cost-effectiveness analysis of pregnant women with a history of OASIS modeling UUC compared with no referral (usual care).

Sling plication for persistent stress urinary incontinence after midurethral sling.

Introduction And Hypothesis: Persistent or recurrent stress urinary incontinence after midurethral sling placement is not uncommon. Treatment options include placement of a second midurethral sling, autologous fascial sling, retropubic urethropexy, or urethral bulking. Shortening of the sling by plication has also been suggested as an alternative option which may reduce operative time, cost, risk of trocar injury, and mesh burden.
