WEST
PALM BEACH, Fla., June 24,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Pelvic Rehabilitation Medicine
(PRM), a national leader in endometriosis care, believes that when
it comes to endometriosis, conducted a study of patients who
received the PRM Protocol™ before their endometriosis excision
surgery. The PRM Protocol™ is a simple, office-based procedure that
externally targets the inflamed nerves and spastic muscles of the
pelvic floor under ultrasound guidance. Data shows that the PRM
Protocol™ was successful in improving excision surgery outcomes,
through desensitizing the pelvic floor.
Post-operative outcomes were compared between patients who
underwent the PRM Protocol™ before endometriosis surgery (Treatment
Group), compared to patients who did not undergo the PRM Protocol™
before surgery (Control Group). The PRM Protocol™ data
demonstrated that undergoing surgery before endometriosis surgery
will enhance surgical outcomes.
"Endometriosis is a systemic, inflammatory disease process.
Every time there is a menstrual cycle, there is inflammation,
healing, and scarring, repeatedly over a person's lifetime", says
Dr. Allyson Shrikhande, Chief
Medical Officer and Co-Founder. "Employing a team of
Fellowship-trained Robotic Endometriosis Surgeons, serving patients
nationwide, along with pelvic pain specialists focused on
endometriosis, PRM, works to reverse the neurogenic inflammatory
process in the pelvis because it helps to decrease the chances of
endometriosis growing back".
While both groups demonstrated a statistically significant
improvement in pain post-operatively, patients who received the PRM
Protocol™ to desensitize the pelvic floor before excision surgery
reported decreased pain almost 20% more than those who did not go
through the protocol.
Additionally, the endometriosis patients who received treatment
through the PRM Protocol™ before their excision surgery reported a
74% decrease in needing to go to the emergency room for their
post-op pain, while 65% could say the same in the control group who
had surgery alone. Additionally, desensitizing the pelvic floor
before excision surgery proves to reduce an endometriosis patient's
reliance on opioids to manage their pelvic pain.
