Abstract

Introduction: Pelvic floor disorders have many effects on women's health and quality of life by causing chronic complications. Our aim was to compare the quality of life and patient satisfaction after pelvic floor surgery. Study design: This observational study was performed on women undergoing pelvic floor surgery who met the inclusion criteria. In order to evaluate the variables before and after the operation, the pelvic floor discomfort questionnaire short form (PFDI-20), surgical satisfaction questionnaire (SSQ-8) and the patient's global perception of recovery (PGI-I) were collected. The results of the questionnaire were reviewed and compared using statistical methods. Results: The scores of PFDI-20 pelvic floor discomfort questionnaire after surgery were significantly improved from preoperative and the Surgical Satisfaction Questionnaire (SSQ-8) as well as the patient's global perception of postoperative recovery (PGI-I) showed exelent results. Conclusion: Improvement in quality of life, special conditions and postoperative patient satisfaction measures can be seen in women with pelvic floor disorders who undergo plevic organ prolapse and incontinence surgeries. © 2020 Lahore Medical And Dental College.
