Brief summary (from the registry)
The study investigates the impact of abdominoplasty in the post partum population on the symptoms of back pain and urinary incontinence. Patients presenting for abdominoplasty fill out validated questionnaires for both back pain (Oswestry Disability Index) and urinary incontinence (ICIQ-UI short form). They complete the same questionnaires 6 weeks and 6 months post op. The prospectively gathered data gives an insight into the incidence of functional symptoms in this post partum group preop as well as the degree of improvement gained postop. This is a multicenter trial with 9 surgeons submitting patients to the study, which ran for 19 months.
