uterus

52
Q

what are the 3 most common POP types

A

cystocele
rectocele
uterine prolapse

53
Q

s/sx of cystocele, urethrocele, or urethrocystocele

A
  • poor/prolonged urinary stream
  • feeling incomplete emptying
  • positioning changes to start/complete emptying
  • SUI
  • urinary retention w bladder outlet obstruction
  • post-void dribble
54
Q

what is a clinical pearl of pt education in cystocele, urethrocele, or urethrocystocele

A

double void: after 1st void, do some PFM/squats/hip circles, then void again to fully empty bladder/urethra

55
Q

s/sx of rectocele

A
  • vaginal pressure/discomfort
  • protrusion from post vaginal wall
  • need to reposition during BM, incomplete emptying
  • difficulty evacuating rectum w splinting
56
Q

what is a clinical pearl of pt education in rectocele

A

splinting: apply pressure to perineum manually OR insert finger in vaginal canal to push on back wall to better empty rectum during BM

57
Q

s/sx of enterocele

A
  • pelvic/vaginal pressure
  • difficulty evacuating rectum/bladder
  • low back discomfort worsening as day progresses
  • inc discomfort w prolonged standing, relieved by lying down
58
Q

what is a clinical pearl in enterocele

A

consider further medical referral for additional dx testing for sx that persist or not improving in therapy

59
Q

s/sx of uterine prolapse

A
  • blood stained purulent dc
  • difficulty w bowel/bladder emptying
  • LBP or discomfort worsening as day progresses
  • inc discomfort w prolonged standing better in supine
60
Q

what is a clinical pearl of pt education in uterine prolapse

A

optimal bowel strategies
pressure management
decreasing gravity/pessary

61
Q

s/sx of vaginal vault prolapse

A
  • pelvic/vaginal pressure
  • difficulty evacuating rectum/bladder
  • low back discomfort worsening as day progresses
