Treatment After scheduling an appointment with our office staff, you can expect a thorough assessment and evaluation for your problem. The following terms are some of the diagnostic and therapeutic measures used in our urogynecology practice: History and physical examination - The first office visit consists of an interview and consultation followed by a physical exam including a pelvic exam. Following the exam, the doctor may recommend specialized testing. Urine examination - A urine analysis and culture are performed to detect infection, inflammation, blood or other underlying kidney problems Cystoscopy - This in-office test enables the physician to look directly inside the bladder through a small camera inserted through the urethra. It is a common test used to detect inflammation, stones, or tumors Multi-channel urodynamics - Urodynamic testing is used to evaluate the bladder's function. These in-office tests are particularly useful for women with urinary incontinence or urinary frequency. Urodynamic testing is performed by a trained Nurse Practitioner. The testing includes a urinalysis, filling the bladder with sterile water, performing bladder function testing and assessing voiding function. Electrodiagnostic testing (EMG) of the pelvic floor - This testing evaluates nerve function of the pelvic floor. Pelvic floor EMG determines the pelvic floor's muscle response during bladder testing and therapeutic incontinence treatment. Minimally invasive surgery for stress incontinence - This surgery includes transvaginal slings or synthetic tapes and urethral bulking injections.
