RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: There is a need for cost effective interventions that increase surgical preparedness in urogynecology. METHODS: We performed an ancillary prospective economic evaluation of the Telehealth Intervention to Increase Patient Preparedness for Surgery (TIPPS) Trial, a randomized multicenter trial that evaluated the impact of a preoperative telehealth call on surgical preparedness in women undergoing urogynecologic surgery. A within-trial analysis from the health care sector and societal perspective was performed. Cost-effectiveness was computed from health care sector and societal perspectives, with an 8-week time horizon. RESULTS: A total of 126 women were included in our analysis. QALYs gained were similar between groups (telehealth 0.1414 + 0.0249; usual care 0.1409 + 0.0179). The cumulative mean per-person costs at 8 weeks from the healthcare sector perspective were telehealth call: $8696 +/- 3341; usual care: $8473 +/- 3118 (p = 0.693) and from the societal perspective were telehealth call: $11,195 + 5191; usual care: $11,213 +/- 4869 (p = 0.944). The preoperative telehealth call intervention was not cost effective from the health care sector perspective with an ICER of $460,091/QALY (95%CI -$7,382,608/QALY, $7,673,961) using the generally accepted maximum willingness to pay threshold of $150,000/QALY (Neumann et al. N Engl J Med. 371(9):796-7, 2014). From the societal perspective, because incremental costs per QALY gained were negative $-35,925/QALY (95%CI, -$382,978/QALY, $317,226), results suggest that preoperative telehealth call dominated usual care. CONCLUSIONS: A preoperative telehealth call is cost effective from the society perspective. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: Registered with http://ClinicalTrials.gov .

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Methods to increase surgical preparedness in urogynecology are lacking. Our objective was to evaluate the impact of a preoperative provider-initiated telehealth call on surgical preparedness. METHODS: This was a multicenter randomized controlled trial. Women undergoing surgery for pelvic organ prolapse and/or stress urinary incontinence were randomized to either a telehealth call 3 (± 2) days before surgery plus usual preoperative counseling versus usual preoperative counseling alone. Our primary outcome was surgical preparedness, as measured by the Preoperative Prepardeness Questionnaire. The Modified Surgical Pain Scale, Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-20, Patient Global Impressions of Improvement, Patient Global Impressions of Severity, Satisfaction with Decision Scale, Decision Regret Scale, and Clavien-Dindo scores were obtained at 4-8 weeks postoperatively and comparisons were made between groups. RESULTS: Mean telehealth call time was 11.1 ± 4.11 min. Women who received a preoperative telehealth call (n = 63) were significantly more prepared for surgery than those who received usual preoperative counseling alone (n = 69); 82.5 vs 59.4%, p < 0.01). A preoperative telehealth call was associated with greater understanding of surgical alternatives (77.8 vs 59.4%, p = 0.03), complications (69.8 vs 47.8%, p = 0.01), hospital-based catheter care (54 vs 34.8%, p = 0.04) and patient perception that nurses and doctors had spent enough time preparing them for their upcoming surgery (84.1 vs 60.9%, p < 0.01). At 4-8 weeks, no differences in postoperative and patient reported outcomes were observed between groups (all p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: A short preoperative telehealth call improves patient preparedness for urogynecological surgery.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Fecal incontinence treatment goals are understudied and are not described for women presenting to care. Our objective was to explore patient-reported goals for fecal incontinence management among women presenting for care at a pelvic floor disorders clinic and develop a conceptual framework that captures the range of desired treatment outcomes. METHODS: A qualitative analysis of patient-reported goals for women with fecal incontinence attending a pelvic floor disorders clinic from October 2017-November 2019 was conducted. A team-based approach was used to identify themes and emerging concepts and develop a conceptual framework. RESULTS: One hundred patients met the inclusion criteria. Mean age was 58 ± 14 years; 67% were White and 46% non-Hispanic. Seventy-nine percent of women had diagnosis(es) of prolapse, urinary complaints, or another pelvic floor disorder. From 230 unique goals identified, five thematic categories emerged: Emotional Status, Functional Status, Concurrent Pelvic Floor Disorders, Care Seeking, and Treatment Aspirations. Thematic domains not previously represented in other qualitative work include patients' focus on treatment for global pelvic health rather than solely on fecal incontinence and treatment aspirations ranging from improvement to cure. Our model captures the close relationship between all pelvic floor disorders and emotion, which in return affects all facets of care. CONCLUSIONS: Women with fecal incontinence report a range of treatment goals from improvement to complete resolution of symptoms. Focusing treatment on patient goals by addressing global pelvic health and negotiating realistic treatment outcomes may improve care in this population.
