Overview / Abstract: |
Last year we ‘focused on function’ with an emphasis on metrics for measuring patient symptoms. This year our focus is on how to individualize treatments based on guidelines and population health, with an emphasis on algorithms of care that highlight the roles of the multidisciplinary teams in medical and surgical management. It will include three "supersessions" on defecatory disorder, urologic conditions, and pelvic pain management. Case and panel discussions between plenary speakers will also be utilized to help anchor the clinical points. In addition to our core Seattle faculty, we have invited VMFH clinicians with expertise in functional pelvic floor disorders to demonstrate the breadth of care in our system. We will review important national standards for testing and diagnosis, including important screening that can be done by primary care providers, current evidence on best surgical and non-surgical care, and clinical trials and initiatives at Virginia Mason. |
