After this workshop, participants will be able to:

  1. Identify, measure and screen for physical and cognitive frailty in older persons
  2. Identify co-existing conditions which might be amenable to pre-operative intervention to achieve best outcomes following surgical treatments for lower urinary tract and pelvic floor dysfunction in frail older women.
  3. Identify and implement post-operative interventions designed to improve outcomes from surgical intervention for lower urinary tract and pelvic floor dysfunction in women
