Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- surgery time [from admission up to 6 hours post operation]
time of surgery
Secondary Outcome Measures
- bleeding [from admission up to 6 hours post operation]
bleeding at surgery - volume of blood loss estimated by the surgeon performing the operation.
- hospital days [from admission up to 96 hours post operation]
how many days after surgery for hospitalization
- PISQ12 score - Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire [from admission up to 6 hours post operation]
Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire is a scoring index used to measure sexual function of women affected by pelvic organ prolapse. range 0-48. 0 marks good sexual function and 48 measures sexual disability affected from pelvic organ prolapse
- PFDI score - Pelvic Floor Disability Index [from admission up to 6 hours post operation]
The Pelvic Floor Disability Index is an index used to obtain an objective score regarding pelvic floor disability comprising of bowel, bladder, or pelvic symptoms over the last 3 months prior to answering the questionnaire. score ranges 0-300. 0 outcome is no pelvic floor disability and 300 marks a high level of pelvic floor disability.
