@RVancavage presented at @icsoffice 2024 that difficulty voiding on the soft #sonesta UDS chair may lead to overdiagnosis of detrusor underactivity. Moving to hard commode or standing w catheters in place reveals intact bladder function. @AlbanyMedUro @AlbanyMed @LABORIEMEDICAL

@RVancavage presented findings @icsoffice 2024 that care for #chronicpelvicpain is costly, more so when #autonomic symptoms and overlapping pain syndromes add complexity. It would benefit insurers to fund multidisciplinary collaboration to improve outcomes! @AmerMedicalAssn

@RVancavage presented @icsoffice that “benign” pelvic health conditions (#pain, #urinary, #bowel, #sexual, #endo) aren’t so benign. They drive significant care seeking and cost. The more overlapping symptom types the higher the cost. @AlbanyMed @AlbanyMedUro
