This is a prospective study to assess the feasibility and success of performing an
intra-operative standing cough test and the correlation with the long term success of the
sling surgery.
intra-operative standing cough test and the correlation with the long term success of the
sling surgery.
The goal is to seek correlation or disparity between the supine versus the sitting cough
test, supine (lying down) versus standing cough test and sitting versus the standing cough
test performed at a constant bladder volume; empty in the office and full in the operating
room. Secondary objective is to test if the intra-operative standing cough test at fullness
correlates with long term success of the sling surgery.
