  • An international Urogynecological association (IUGA)/international continence society (ICS) joint report on the terminology for the assessment of sexual health of women with Pelvic Floor Dysfunction
    International Urogynecology Journal, 2018
    Co-Authors: Rebecca G. Rogers, Melanie Morin, Annette Kuhn, Eckhard Petri, Ranee Thakar, Brigitte Fatton, Sheryl A Kingsberg, Rachel N Pauls, Kristene Whitmore, Joseph Lee
    Abstract:

    Introduction and hypothesisThe terminology in current use for sexual function and Dysfunction in women with Pelvic Floor disorders lacks uniformity, which leads to uncertainty, confusion, and unintended ambiguity. The terminology for the sexual health of women with Pelvic Floor Dysfunction needs to be collated in a clinically-based consensus report.MethodsThis report combines the input of members of the Standardization and Terminology Committees of two International Organizations, the International Urogynecological Association (IUGA), and the International Continence Society (ICS), assisted at intervals by many external referees. Internal and external review was developed to exhaustively examine each definition, with decision-making by collective opinion (consensus). Importantly, this report is not meant to replace, but rather complement current terminology used in other fields for female sexual health and to clarify terms specific to women with Pelvic Floor Dysfunction.ResultsA clinically based terminology report for sexual health in women with Pelvic Floor Dysfunction encompassing over 100 separate definitions, has been developed. Key aims have been to make the terminology interpretable by practitioners, trainees, and researchers in female Pelvic Floor Dysfunction. Interval review (5–10 years) is anticipated to keep the document updated and as widely acceptable as possible.ConclusionsA consensus-based terminology report for female sexual health in women with Pelvic Floor Dysfunction has been produced aimed at being a significant aid to clinical practice and a stimulus for research.

    Abstract:

    Introduction and hypothesis Next to existing terminology of the lower urinary tract, due to its increasing complexity, the terminology for Pelvic Floor Dysfunction in women may be better updated by a female-specific approach and clinically based consensus report.

  • An International Urogynecological Association (IUGA)/International Continence Society (ICS) joint report on the terminology for the conservative and nonpharmacological management of female Pelvic Floor Dysfunction
    International Urogynecology Journal, 2017
    Co-Authors: Kari Bø, Helena C. Frawley, Fernando G. Almeida, Maria Bortolini, Chantale Dumoulin, Mário Gomes, Bary Berghmans, Bernard T. Haylen, Yoram Abramov, Doreen Mcclurg
    Abstract:

    Introduction and hypothesisThere has been an increasing need for the terminology on the conservative management of female Pelvic Floor Dysfunction to be collated in a clinically based consensus report.MethodsThis Report combines the input of members and elected nominees of the Standardization and Terminology Committees of two International Organizations, the International Urogynecological Association (IUGA) and the International Continence Society (ICS), assisted at intervals by many external referees. An extensive process of nine rounds of internal and external review was developed to exhaustively examine each definition, with decision-making by collective opinion (consensus). Before opening up for comments on the webpages of ICS and IUGA, five experts from physiotherapy, neurology, urology, urogynecology, and nursing were invited to comment on the paper.ResultsA Terminology Report on the conservative management of female Pelvic Floor Dysfunction, encompassing over 200 separate definitions, has been developed. It is clinically based, with the most common symptoms, signs, assessments, diagnoses, and treatments defined. Clarity and ease of use have been key aims to make it interpretable by practitioners and trainees in all the different specialty groups involved in female Pelvic Floor Dysfunction. Ongoing review is not only anticipated, but will be required to keep the document updated and as widely acceptable as possible.ConclusionA consensus-based terminology report for the conservative management of female Pelvic Floor Dysfunction has been produced, aimed at being a significant aid to clinical practice and a stimulus for research.

  • the standardization of terminology of female Pelvic organ prolapse and Pelvic Floor Dysfunction
    American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1996
    Co-Authors: Richard C. Bump, Kari Bø, John O L Delancey, Anders Mattiasson, Linda Brubaker, Peter Klarskov, Bob L Shull, Anthony R Smith
    Abstract:

    Abstract This article presents a standard system of terminology recently approved by the International Continence Society, the American Urogynecologic Society, and the Society of Gynecologic Surgeons for the description of female Pelvic organ prolapse and Pelvic Floor Dysfunction. An objective site-specific system for describing, quantitating, and staging Pelvic support in women is included. It has been developed to enhance both clinical and academic communication regarding individual patients and populations of patients. Clinicians and researchers caring for women with Pelvic organ prolapse and Pelvic Floor Dysfunction are encouraged to learn and use the system. (Am J Obstet Gynecol 1996;175:10-7.)
