Much like a higher stage of disease in oncology, we found that increasing stage of prolapse preoperatively increased the risk of recurrence at 1 year after sacrocolpopexy.
Purpose: To evaluate the association of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy with SARs-CoV-2 infection in pregnant women.Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of all pregnant patients with positive SARs-CoV-2 molecular test at four participating hospitals located in a large metropolitan city and who delivered between February 1 st and November 24 th , 2020. Patients who tested positive during their pregnancy and delivered (index cases) were compared to the three subsequent deliveries of patients who tested negative (controls) at the same institution. We evaluated the impact of COVID-19 on the development of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.Results: A total of 280 patients were included in the study: 70 patients who tested positive for Coronavirus Disease-2019 and 210 matched controls. Compared with pregnancies negative for SARS-CoV-2 infection, COVID-19 was associated with an increased risk of developing a hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (OR 3.68, 95% CI 1.67 -8.10). Overall rates of preeclampsia with severe features were signi cantly higher in patients with a COVID-19 diagnosis (18.6% vs 7.1%, p=0.006). Of COVID-19 positive patients, an early SARS-CoV-2 infection (prior to 32 week's gestation) conferred a higher risk of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (OR=6.29, CI 1.64-24.07; p=0.007). There was no difference in route of delivery, preterm birth, intrauterine growth restriction, intrauterine fetal demise, or pregnancy and fetal outcomes.Conclusion: COVID-19 is a risk factor for hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.
Importance:The retropubic midurethral sling (rMUS) and sacrocolpopexy are treatments for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and pelvic organ prolapse, respectively, which are often performed concomitantly. Objective:The purpose of this study was to identify whether a difference exists in the failure rates of rMUS when placed alone or at the time of robotic sacrocolpopexy (RSC). Study Design:We conducted a single-center retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent rMUS placement between December 2015 and March 2020. The primary outcome was rMUS failure defined as additional treatment for SUI at any point.Results: There were 160 patients who underwent isolated rMUS and 175 patients who underwent rMUS and RSC. Patients who underwent isolated rMUS were more likely to be obese ( P < 0.01). Patients who underwent RSC were older (63.3 ± 9.9 vs 57.7 ± 13.7 years, P < 0.0001) and more likely to be White ( P = 0.02). Follow-up ranged from 0 to 46 months (median, 3 months; interquartile range, 3 months). Failure was observed in 2.3% of rMUS placed alone and 8.6% of rMUS with RSC. Patients who underwent rMUS and RSC had an odds ratio of 3.63 for rMUS failure ( P = 0.03; 95% confidence interval, 1. 16-11.38). Hypertension was associated with 4 times higher rMUS failure (odds ratio, 4.18; P = 0.02; 95% confidence interval, 1.29-13.58). Conclusions:We observed a significantly increased rate of rMUS failure from those placed alone to those placed at the time of RSC. Retropubic midurethral sling at the time of RSC was 4 times more likely to result in additional SUI treatment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
