Through this interactive application you can enter POP-Q scores, visually demonstrate the captured measurements for patients, educate patients before and after surgery, and print out patient-specific results.

The POP-Q system should be conducted on a patient who has emptied their bladder beforehand. It is found that an empty bladder aids in magnifying a better representation of a prolapse in the six specific locations (Aa, Ba, C, D, Ap, and Bp).

The Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantifications System (POP-Q) is a system for assessing the degree of prolapse of pelvic organs to help standardize diagnosing, comparing, documenting, and sharing of clinical findings.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification system (POP–Q) refers to an objective, site–specific system for describing, quantifying, and staging pelvic support in women [1]. It provides a standardized tool for documenting, comparing, and communicating clinical findings with proven interobserver and intraobserver reliability [2].

2018年8月15日 · POP-Q is a useful way of objectively assessing and recording pelvic organ prolapse and helps in better communication of findings. Stage 2 or above POP-Q seems to correlate well with a symptomatic prolapse.

The “POP-Q” system, as well as providing standard terminology, provided a way to quantify and measure the level of pelvic organ prolapse. As with any “standard system”, it was intended to identify “normal” and to find a uniform way to specify the different stages of prolapse.

Methods: The basic approach to use of the POP-Q was identified and summarized. Results: Six defined points in the vagina are identified; points Aa and Ba for the anterior vagina, Ap and Bp for the posterior vagina, and C and D for the cervix/vault.

POP-Q: Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification; TVL: total vaginal length. Diagnostic imaging to characterize a patient’s POP is an emerging field of study, but in clinical practice is generally not necessary.

This staging system defines the degree of pelvic organ prolapse using the relationship of two anatomical points on the anterior vaginal wall, the vaginal apex, and the posterior vaginal wall to the hymen. A value of 0 is parallel to the hymen, negative values are above the hymen, and positive values are below the hymen.
