Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: A study was performed to assess the satisfaction rate (SR) after transobturator procedures in pad negative women. METHODS: All patients were asked to complete Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI) questionnaire. SR after the procedure was estimated by means of VAS scale. Two groups were formed (group 0, 100% SR; group 1, <100% SR) and compared by means of Student t test and Chi-square test. Predictors of SR were tested by linear regression model. RESULTS: Data was available for 168 women. The mean follow-up was 18.4 weeks, a negative pad test was observed in 153 patients (91.1%). Less than 100% SR was observed in 83 (54.2%) women with negative pad test. SR was significantly predicted by total UDI and irritative UDI score after surgery (p < 0.001), the later bearing also greatest negative impact on QoL (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Irritative symptoms are the main reason for dissatisfaction of patients with surgical outcome.
