Video Virtual Clinical Encounters Versus Office Visits for Postoperative Care After Pelvic Organ Prolapse Surgery: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Open accessAbstract
Objectives: To determine if patient satisfaction of virtual clinical encounters is noninferior to traditional in-office clinical encounters for postoperative follow-up after reconstructive surgery for pelvic organ prolapse. Methods: This was a randomized controlled noninferiority trial of women undergoing surgery for pelvic organ prolapse. Women were recruited and randomized during their preoperative counseling visit to virtual clinical encounters via video conference technology or in-office clinical encounters for their 30-day postoperative follow-up visits. The primary outcome was patient satisfaction measured by the validated Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire-18 (score range, 18–90, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction) administered by telephone following the 30-day visit. Additional information regarding demographics, postoperative health care utilization, and complications was collected via chart review and compared between groups. Results: A total of 52 women were randomly assigned to virtual clinical encounters via videoconference technology or traditional in-office clinical encounters (26 per group). The mean patient satisfaction score was 80.7 ± 2.6 in the virtual group and 81.2 ± 2.8 in the office group (difference, −0.46 points; 95% confidence interval, −1.95 to 1.03), which was consistent with noninferiority. Postoperative complication rates were 31% in the virtual group and 46% in the office group ( P = 0.3). There were no significant between-group differences in secondary measures of unscheduled telephone calls (88% versus 77%, P = 0.5) and office visits (35% versus 38%, P = 0.8), emergency room visits (15% versus 19%, P = 1.0), and hospital readmissions (4% versus 12%, P = 0.6) within 90 days of surgery. Conclusions: For patients with pelvic organ prolapse undergoing reconstructive surgery, postoperative virtual clinical encounters via video conference technology are noninferior to traditional in-office clinical encounters with high levels of short-term patient satisfaction and no differences in postoperative health care utilization and complications rates.

Randomization count differs between the abstract and results
MinorThe abstract says 52 women were randomly assigned, while the results say 54 were randomized and 52 completed follow-up.
“A total of 52 women were randomly assigned to virtual clinical encounters via videoconference technology or traditional in-office clinical encounters (26 per group).”
“A total of 148 women were screened for eligibility, 54 were randomized, and 52 women completed all aspects of the 30 day and 90 day follow up visits (Figure 1).”
Patient-satisfaction difference changes sign
MinorThe results give the between-group difference as positive 0.46, but the abstract reports −0.46 for the same outcome. The reported confidence interval is also centered on −0.46.
“The between-group mean difference of 0.46 (95% CI −1.95 to 1.03) in total patient satisfaction score as measured by the PSQ-18 met our criterion for non-inferiority of virtual clinical encounters (Figure 2).”
“The mean patient satisfaction score was 80.7 ± 2.6 in the virtual group and 81.2 ± 2.8 in the office group (difference, −0.46 points; 95% confidence interval, −1.95 to 1.03), which was consistent with non-inferiority.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-09-28, under version 3 of the claim definition (prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-09-28 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
