The authors have combined their expertise to create a thorough, comprehensive view of female pelvic floor biomechanics in order to help different disciplines discuss, research, and drive solutions to pressing problems. The book includes a common language for the design, conduct, and reporting of research studies in female PFD, and will be of interest to biomechanical and prosthetic tissue engineers and clinicians interested in female pelvic floor dysfunction, including urologists, urogynecologists, maternal fetal medicine specialists, and physical therapists.
Zielgruppe
<p>Biomechanical, prosthetic & tissue engineers interested in the female pelvic floor.</p> <p>Clinicians interested in female pelvic floor dysfunction - Urologists, urogynecologists, ob/gyn, Maternal fetal medicine specialists, physical therapists. </p>
