Comparison of Length of Hospital Stay Between Radical Retropubic Prostatectomy and Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy
Bradford A. Nelson,Melissa R. Kaufman,Gregory J. Broughton,Michael S. Cookson,Sam S. Chang,S. Duke Herrell,Roxelyn G. Baumgartner,Joseph A. Smith +7 more
TL;DR: A targeted hospital discharge date of postoperative day 1 can be achieved in the majority of patients who underwent radical prostatectomy and these patients can be treated on the same clinical pathway, according to a prospectively evaluated cohort of patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autologous Muscle Derived Cells for Treatment of Stress Urinary Incontinence in Women
Kenneth M. Peters,Roger R. Dmochowski,Lesley K. Carr,Magali Robert,Melissa R. Kaufman,Larry T. Sirls,Sender Herschorn,Colin Birch,Patricia L. Kultgen,Michael B. Chancellor +9 more
TL;DR: Safety data suggest autologous muscle derived cells for urinary sphincter repair at doses of 10, 50, 100 and 200×10(6) cells appears safe, and efficacy data suggest a potential dose response with a greater percentage of patients responsive to higher doses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toileting Behaviors of Women—What is Healthy?
Casey G. Kowalik,Adam Daily,Sophia Delpe,Melissa R. Kaufman,Jay H. Fowke,Roger R. Dmochowski,W. Stuart Reynolds +6 more
TL;DR: Certain toileting behaviors, of which some may be considered unhealthy, were common in this sample of women and most were associated with a perception of bladder problems, which have important implications for defining bladder health and implementing behavior based interventions for women with lower urinary tract symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Voiding Function in Women with Orthotopic Neobladder Urinary Diversion
Christopher B. Anderson,Michael S. Cookson,Sam S. Chang,Peter E. Clark,Joseph A. Smith,Melissa R. Kaufman +5 more
TL;DR: A significant prevalence of voiding dysfunction is identified among women with orthotopic neobladder after radical cystectomy and preoperative discussion of these possible complications is recommended to establish realistic expectations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Urinary retention rates after intravesical onabotulinumtoxinA injection for idiopathic overactive bladder in clinical practice and predictors of this outcome.
David J. Osborn,Melissa R. Kaufman,Stephen Mock,Michael Guan,Roger R. Dmochowski,W. Stuart Reynolds +5 more
TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to find the rate of urinary retention in clinical practice after treatment with onabotulinumtoxinA (BTN/A) for refractory overactive bladder symptoms and determine factors that predict this outcome.
