A Physician-Led Communication Initiative to Inform OAB Patients of Dementia Risk Associated With Anticholinergic Medications.

Objectives: Anticholinergic medications are a core treatment strategy for overactive bladder (OAB). There is evidence that exposure to anticholinergic medications is associated with an increased risk of developing dementia. We launched an initiative to inform our patients of this risk and give them an opportunity to engage in shared decision-making about their treatment.

Pelvic organ prolapse recurrence after apical prolapse repair: does obesity matter?

Introduction And Hypothesis: We hypothesized obesity increases the risk of pelvic organ prolapse recurrence (POP-R) after primary apical prolapse repair.
