“…The median quality of the evidence was low with a high risk of bias. [33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46] Seven articles were abstracts, and seven were manuscripts. One article was reported under both "animals" and 'cadavers' since it included both interventions.…”

ImportanceIncrease dissemination of educational tools in urogynecology.ObjectiveDescribe the effectiveness and public availability of published educational tools for urogynecologic surgery.Study designA systematic review was conducted by searching MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science from 1946 to 2023 for articles describing educational tools in urogynecology. There were no restrictions on study design or language. Data were extracted in duplicate using a standardized piloted extraction form, and outcomes were combined descriptively.Results2997 titles, 457 abstracts, and 97 full‐text articles were analyzed. Of the 97 interventions included, 43 were manuscripts and 54 were conference abstracts. The median study quality was low, with a moderate risk of bias. Six intervention categories were identified: didactics, animal models, cadavers, static models, extended reality (XR), and multimodal workshops. Didactics were subjectively useful for teaching pelvic anatomy and diseases and improving surgical techniques. If good quality, animal models and cadavers provided visual and tactile learning and assessed performance in real‐time. Animal models were also anatomically realistic and useful at half the cost of cadavers. Static models and XR improved confidence, knowledge, skills, and error rates despite lack of realism and accurate tissue texture in some models and steep learning curve with XR. Only four models were commercially accessible. Most studies did not assess long‐term (>6 months) retention.ConclusionAll educational modalities for urogynecologic surgery are largely realistic and increase participant satisfaction, preparedness, knowledge, skills, and likelihood of use. But only 40% advanced to manuscripts, and even fewer (<5%) were widely available.

The history of the Society of Urodynamics, Female Pelvic Medicine, and Urogenital Reconstruction

Abstract: Throughout the Society's near half-century long existence, the Society has fostered research, published guidelines, and educated trainees in order to improve the care of individuals suffering from lower urinary tract dysfunction.
