Abstract: Objective To investigate the relevance between expectations before treatment, new symptoms and satisfaction after treatment of the pelvic organ prolapse (POP) patients. Methods Made a collection of 75 cases of POP patients at Peking University Third Hospital, who were affected by the POP symptoms and came to our clinic for treatment from January to December in 2013. Prospectively investigate the patients′expectations before treatment, which were the most troubling symptoms to be solved. According to treatment we divided the patients into surgery and pessary groups. Two groups were followed up with the degree to achieve the desired goals using patient global impression of improvement (PGI-I), new symptoms and satisfaction after treatment, try to find the relevance between expectations before treatment, new symptoms and satisfaction after treatment. Results There were 47 (63%, 47/75) patients in the surgical group and 28 (37%, 28/75) patients in the pessary group. The top three problems for patients were friction when walking (25%, 19/75), dysuria (23%, 17/75) and the feeling of vaginal prolapse (19%, 14/75). The follow-up rate was of 93% (70/75), follow-up time was (5 ± 4) months. Satisfaction score after treatment of surgical group was higher than that of pessary group [(4.9±0.4) versus (4.0±1.3) scores, P<0.01]. There was no statistically significant difference between two groups of PGI-I score [(6.7±0.6) versus (6.6±0.9) scores, P=0.886]. The top three new symptoms after treatment were increased secretion, urinary incontinence and dysuria. PGI-I and satisfaction scores was relevant (P=0.021). The availability of new symptoms and satisfaction scores was relevant (P=0.001). Conclusion When achieving higher expectations to the treatment and no more new symptoms, the satisfaction score after treatment is higher.
