Clinicians interested in conservative treatment options for women with urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse |

Aims and Objectives
|
Globally there is an increasing elder population leading to an increase in prevalence of urogenital aging, incontinence and pelvic floor prolapse in women.
Clinicians are experiencing ever increasing treatment costs and a growing number of patient requests for conservative treatment options.
Vaginal support devices have experienced a rebirth in design and indication for use.
Pessaries are an effective, low cost, low risk conservative treatment option.
This workshop is designed to introduce the clinician to the practical pessary.
This workshop will be in lecture format with time for questions, small group case work with models (time permitting) and a panel discussion to follow.
