Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: Guided IMagery (GIM)
If randomized to GIM, they will then be given an audio Compact Disc.
Patients will be instructed to listen to the recording least once per day in a calm location during the week leading up to surgery.
They will then be seen prior to surgery in the surgical waiting area where they will evaluated for anxiety, preparedness and study compliance.

It's a program of directed thoughts and suggestions that guide your imagination to a relaxed and focused state.

No Intervention: Standard of Care (SOC)
Each participant will complete a baseline set of questionnaires. The Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory (PFDI) is a 20 question self-administered questionnaire on the presence and both of pelvic floor symptoms . The Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification System (POPQ) measures the topography of the vagina and is considered to be gold standard for quantifying prolapse . The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) has been used extensively in research and clinical practice since its introduction in 1966 and is the most widely cited measure of anxiety. New measurements at the 6-week follow-up appointment will include the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGII), and a postoperative questionnaire eliciting overall satisfaction and development of new pelvic symptoms. |

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in patient satisfaction with urogynecological surgery when using GIM (questionnaire)
Time Frame: 6 weeks
|
Women will report their satisfaction with their surgical experience 6 weeks after surgery using a 10-point Likert scale.
|
6 weeks
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in patient sense of preparedness when using GIM (questionnaire)
Time Frame: 6 weeks
|
Preparedness will be measured at baseline, day of surgery, and 6 weeks after surgery to determine how GIM affected patient preparedness.
It will be measured using a 10-point Likert scale
|
6 weeks
|
Change in patient anxiety about surgery when using GIM (questionnaire)
Time Frame: 6 week
|
Patient anxiety will be measured at baseline, day of surgery and at 6 weeks post op to determine how GIM affected anxiety.
It will be measured using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), which has been used extensively in research and clinical practice since its introduction in 1966 and is the most widely cited measure of anxiety.
