CSPM Workshops

- Gynecologic surgeons
‍

1. Develop a deeper understanding of vNOTES applications in urogynecological procedures
2. Compare and contrast vaginal vs. vNOTES approaches for uterosacral suspension
3. Standardize suture placement techniques to improve surgical outcomes
4. Understand anatomical landmarks and their relationship based on histological and radiological reconstructions of pelvic organs
5. Gain hands-on experience in uterosacral hysteropexy and vaginal vault suturing techniques
‍

- This workshop offers participants an in-depth exploration of vNOTES (vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery) and its applications in urogynecological procedures
- Attendees will compare vNOTES with traditional vaginal approaches for uterosacral suspension, with a focus on optimizing technique and outcomes
- The session will emphasize standardized suture placement methods and a detailed understanding of pelvic anatomical landmarks, supported by histological and radiological reconstructions
- Participants will also gain valuable hands-on experience in procedures such as uterosacral hysteropexy and vaginal vault suturing, enhancing both their surgical precision and clinical confidence
‍

- Physicians and surgeons
- Allied Healthcare practitioners
‍

1. Understand why the clitoris has historically been omitted from medical education
2. Build an anatomically correct model of the clitoral complex, including the nervous and vascular systems
3. Offer physiotherapy scar mobilization and/or 'clitoral lysis of adhesions' procedures in their clinical practice
4. Feel empowered to create change to their home institution's anatomy curriculum with novel curricular content garnered from this workshop
‍

- This hands-on workshop will help participants build confidence in understanding both superficial and deep pelvic anatomy and its connection to common urogynecology procedures
- Attendees will learn how to assess, diagnose, and treat clitoral pathologies such as clitoral phimosis, using physiotherapy, in-office, or surgical approaches
- The session includes instructional videos and practice on pelvic models, allowing participants to gain practical skills in techniques like lysis of adhesions, scar mobilization, and dorsal clitoral nerve blocks
- Upon completion, attendees will be equipped to apply these techniques in clinical practice and teach the anatomy and techniques at their home institutions
‍

- Pelvic Health Physiotherapists
- Allied Health Practitioners
‍

- This expert-led, interactive forum will offer practical, evidence-based insights and collaborative learning you can apply directly into your practice
- The participants will rotate between three skill-building stations covering more topics
‍

1. Ultrasound Imaging of the Structure and Function of the Female Pelvic Floor Muscles
2. Multimodal Physiotherapy for Pelvic Pain
3. Mastering Pessary Management: Evidence-based Insights and Practical Tips

- This hands-on session offers an introduction to the use of 2D transperineal ultrasound imaging in assessing female pelvic floor morphology and function
- The workshop emphasizes the clinical application of ultrasound for evaluating and managing pelvic floor dysfunction, including its use as a real-time biofeedback tool
- Participants will gain hands on skills in imaging techniques through live demonstrations and hands-on practice
- The session will also cover relevant anatomy, interpretation of dynamic ultrasound findings, integration with other assessment tools like EMG, and a critical discussion of the current evidence base and clinical utility
‍

- This session will explore the effectiveness of multimodal physiotherapy in the management of pelvic pain in women, highlighting the latest evidence on its impact on pain intensity, sexual function, and psychological outcomes
- Participants will gain insights into the key components of this approach, supported by current research, and learn how these strategies are implemented in clinical practice
- The session will also address real-world challenges faced by clinicians, offering practical guidance on delivering evidence-based, patient-centered care for this complex condition
‍

- This evidence-informed session offers clinicians a practical and comprehensive approach to pessary management for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI)
- Participants will learn to identify clinical indications, assess factors influencing fitting success, and select appropriate pessary types
- The session includes pelvic model practice, complication management strategies, and guidance on personalized follow-up plans
- By the end, attendees will feel more confident integrating pessary care into their pelvic health practice
