Having been treated for pelvic floor disorder for 2 years, Ms. Nguyen Thi Ha (Tan Son Nhi ward, Ho Chi Minh City) said that her condition has improved significantly after treatment. However, after a period of stopping monitoring, symptoms recurred, causing her to return to the hospital for examination.
“My previous treatment was very effective, but after stopping for a while, the disease recurred, so I returned for examination today. Previously, examination and performing paraclinical tests had to move through many different areas, causing inconvenience for patients. However, now services are arranged centrally, making the examination process more convenient and faster,” Ms. Ha shared.
Also a person who used to work in the health sector, Ms. Ha believes that the establishment of a specialized center on pelvic floor is of great significance to women, because this is a sensitive disease that many people are often hesitant to share. "Many women are sick but are afraid to speak, afraid to go for examination. When there is a specialized center, patients will be more assured when coming for examination and treatment. Investing in modern equipment not only improves the quality of treatment but also helps patients feel more confident," Ms. Ha shared.
Understanding the unspeakable inconveniences of many women suffering from sensitive diseases today, on March 26, Hung Vuong Hospital put into operation the Pelvic floor Center and the Department of On-the-Day Treatment. According to Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hoang Thi Diem Tuyet, Director of Hung Vuong Hospital, the establishment of the Pelvic floor Center aims to comprehensively care for women, especially postpartum women and women around menopause, groups prone to pelvic floor disorders such as urinary incontinence, hypogonadism or sexual dysfunction.
According to Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hoang Thi Diem Tuyet, these are quite common diseases, but many women are still hesitant, rarely share, and only come for examination when the condition has seriously affected their quality of life. Therefore, the formation of specialized centers with full diagnostic and treatment facilities helps patients have the opportunity to be detected early and intervened in time.
The Pelvic floor center is invested in a modern diagnostic system such as specialized pelvic floor ultrasound, urological system... In addition to traditional surgical treatment methods, the hospital also deploys minimally invasive or non-invasive treatment methods such as biofeedback, laser... to diversify treatment options, suitable for each patient.
Investing in pelvic floor centers helps improve the quality of life for women, helping them have better health to take care of their families and contribute to society," Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hoang Thi Diem Tuyet emphasized.
Therefore, the hospital implements preventive programs right from after birth, and at the same time conducts early screening in the pre-menopause and menopause stages to reduce the risk of severe progression, limit surgical intervention and save treatment costs.
In addition to the Pelvic floor center, Hung Vuong Hospital also put into operation the On-the-Day Treatment Department. This is a model suitable for modern medical trends, helping patients perform simple gynecological procedures or surgeries and can be discharged on the same day. This model not only ensures efficiency and safety but also helps save costs, reduce interruption of work and living of patients.
