poise impressa

[Becky Margulies]

hi smarty pantses, 

do you guys know anything about poise impressa? recently a bunch of patients have been asking about it, i assume they are advertising on TV? i tried to find some research / peer reviewed journal articles about it and came up with nothing... what's the word, my urogyn ladies?

also - elisa and christina - doesn't this thing look a lot like that device we were testing at one point during fellowship? i thought it was J&J at the time, but maybe they sold it to poise? who knows?

xo,

b

Avi winkler helped devise it....I had a bunch of samples in my office for a "study" but it's really hard to offer it before a sling. I have a few nullips who like it during their runs or "double unders" at cross fit and I also gave a few trial boxes to young women who wanted more kids in conjunction with pelvic floor physical therapy.....

It's sort of like using a tampon but with more prongs- you can't use it during your period or for more than 8 hours.......

Happy to talk more about it if you want but that's my limited use....

[Katherine Sandhu]

Sadly, no. I'll be in California for a wedding the following week and it's just too much to go to west coast two weekends in a row. So sad!!!!!! I'll miss you!!!!

bummer to miss you Kathy!

 

I have seen this before - Cheryl showed it to us but the prong things underneath seemed intense. Haven't used it - Kathy kind of confirmed what I thought. It's like a parachute.

Hi guys!! I have never seen this contraption. It scares me. I can't wait for AUGS.
