What is the Impact of the Presence of a Support Person on Informed Consent
SurgeryKnowledge5 moreIn practice, the Investigators recommend that patients bring a family member or close friend to their pre-operative appointment to help with patient anxiety, comprehension, and informed decision-making. However, there is limited literature to support this recommendation. The investigators are exploring if having a support person present during this consent process impacts anxiety, satisfaction, knowledge, and preparedness for surgery.
Uterosacral Ligament Suspension vs Robotic Sacrocolpopexy
Pelvic Organ ProlapseThis cross sectional, two cohort study seeks to investigate both anatomic outcome and subjective, functional outcome of uterosacral ligament suspension versus robotic sacrocolpopexy and compare patient satisfaction, bladder function, sexual function and complication rate for each procedure.This study will provide a better understanding about the durability of these procedures and long term complication.

One Year Outcome After Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic Sacral Colpopexy, a Case Series Review
Pelvic Organ ProlapseUrinary IncontinenceRobotic approach to sacral colpopexy is a relatively new procedure. The literature is scarce in regard to its long-term outcomes. This advanced procedure is offered at MMH through the Urogynecology division. The Investigators setup to review the one year outcome of patients who underwent this procedure using a polypropylene mesh. These outcomes will include anatomical and quality of life measures.
Treatment Outcomes of Vaginal Prolapse Repair

Does Spinal Anesthesia for Prolapse Surgery With Lead to Urinary Retention?
Urinary RetentionUterine ProlapseThe purpose of the study is to compare the risk of being unable to urinate shortly after surgery, also called acute post-operative urinary retention (POUR) between spinal and general anesthesia in women who undergo outpatient pelvic organ prolapse with stress urinary incontinence surgery.
Predictors of Post Operative Morbidity in Older Women With Pelvic Organ Prolapse
Pelvic Organ ProlapseThe Investigators hypothesize that functional status scores in elderly women undergoing surgery for pelvic organ prolapse will be lower at 6 weeks post-operatively but will have returned to baseline at 12 weeks post-operatively. The Investigators hypothesize that greater co-morbidity, frailty and worse functional status before surgery are associated with slower functional recovery, prolonged length of stay in a hospital or nursing care institution and greater post-operative complications following surgery for pelvic organ prolapse.
