Abstract

Introduction and hypothesis

The aim of this study is to investigate associations between preoperative resting urethral parameters and objective outcome of laparoscopic colposuspension.

Methods

Data from 219 stress incontinent women who underwent laparoscopic colposuspension, with leakage at standardized pad test repeated after surgery, were collected. Associations between objective cure and preoperative maximum urethral closure pressure, functional urethral length, and continence area were analyzed using receiving operator characteristics curves. The level for 75% cure for each parameter was identified.

Results

All parameters were positively associated with cure. Continence area showed the strongest association. No cut-off values for prediction of failure were found. Women having levels equal or higher than the “75% cure level” for all urethral parameters had a cure rate of 88% compared with 55% for women with all parameters lower than this level.

Conclusions

A combination of the urethral parameters may be useful for identifying patients with excellent chance for cure after colposuspension. Further studies are needed on continence area.

Ambulantisierung: Erste Erfahrungen mit dem Hybrid-DRG

02.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Die Hybrid-DRG-Verordnung soll dazu führen, dass mehr chirurgische Eingriffe ambulant durchgeführt werden, wie es in anderen Ländern schon länger üblich ist. Die gleiche Vergütung im ambulanten und stationären Sektor hatten Niedergelassene schon lange gefordert. Aber die Umsetzung bereitet ihnen doch Kopfzerbrechen.

Sind Frauen die fähigeren Ärzte?

30.04.2024 Gendermedizin Nachrichten

Patienten, die von Ärztinnen behandelt werden, dürfen offenbar auf bessere Therapieergebnisse hoffen als Patienten von Ärzten. Besonders gilt das offenbar für weibliche Kranke, wie eine Studie zeigt.

Harninkontinenz: Netz-Op. erfordert über lange Zeit intensive Nachsorge

30.04.2024 Harninkontinenz Nachrichten

Frauen mit Belastungsinkontinenz oder Organprolaps sind nach einer Netz-Operation keineswegs beschwerdefrei. Vielmehr scheint die Krankheitslast weiterhin hoch zu sein, sogar höher als von harninkontinenten Frauen, die sich nicht haben operieren lassen.

Welche Übungen helfen gegen Diastase recti abdominis?

30.04.2024 Schwangerenvorsorge Nachrichten

Die Autorinnen und Autoren einer aktuellen Studie aus Griechenland sind sich einig, dass Bewegungstherapie, einschließlich Übungen zur Stärkung der Bauchmuskulatur und zur Stabilisierung des Rumpfes, eine Diastase recti abdominis postpartum wirksam reduzieren kann. Doch vieles ist noch nicht eindeutig belegt.
