Abstract

Introduction and hypothesis

Patient-reported outcome measure instruments include patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and patient-reported goals (PRGs), which allow practitioners to measure symptoms and determine outcomes of treatment that matter to patients.

Methods

This is a structured review completed by the International Urogynecology Consultation (IUC), sponsored by the International Urogynecological Association (IUGA). The aim of this working group was to evaluate and synthesize the existing evidence for PROs and PRGs in the initial clinical work-up/evaluation and research arena for patients with pelvic organ prolapse (POP).

Results

The initial search generated 3589 non-duplicated studies. After abstract review by 4 authors, 211 full texts were assessed for eligibility by 2 writing group members, and 199 studies were reviewed in detail. Any disagreements on abstract or full-text articles were resolved by a third reviewer or during video meetings as a group. The list of POP PROs and information on PRGs was developed from these articles. Tables were generated to describe the validation of each PRO and to provide currently available, validated translations.

Conclusions

 All patients presenting for POP should be evaluated for vaginal, bladder, bowel and sexual symptoms including their goals for symptom treatment. This screening can be facilitated by a validated PRO; however, most PROs provide more information than needed to provide clinical care and were designed for research purposes.

Überaktive Blase behandeln dank App

Wiederholter Harndrang bei überaktiver Blase kann erlernt und damit auch verlernt werden. Neue Therapieansätze setzen genau hier an: Durch kontrollierte Reizwahrnehmung soll die übersteigerte Reaktionsbereitschaft des Körpers abgebaut werden. Digitale Gesundheitsanwendungen unterstützen Betroffene dabei – mit messbarem Erfolg.

Längeres Stillen wohl mit weniger Entwicklungsverzögerungen assoziiert

Ausschließliches oder längeres Stillen ist einer Kohortenstudie zufolge mit einer geringeren Wahrscheinlichkeit für Entwicklungsverzögerungen sowie sprachliche oder soziale Störungen der Kinder assoziiert. Die Ergebnisse könnten dazu beitragen, die frühe kindliche Entwicklung zu fördern.

Open-Label-Placebo verringert offenbar PMS-Symptome deutlich

Ein Placebo gegen PMS-Beschwerden, bei dem die Betroffenen wissen, dass es ein Placebo ist? Das kann einer neuen Studie zufolge tatsächlich die Symptome verringern. Die Open-Label-Placebos könnten daher eine Behandlungsalternative zu herkömmlichen PMS-Therapien darstellen.

Chronischen Beckenschmerzen auf der Spur

Für chronische Beckenschmerzen kommen meist eine Vielzahl möglicher Ursachen in Frage. Die Diagnose und eine entsprechende Therapieentscheidung ist schwierig und nicht selten frustrierend – sowohl für Patientinnen als auch Behandelnde.
