Participant Flow

After signing informed consent and enrolling in the study, 4 subjects withdrew consent prior to randomization, 4 subjects had surgery cancelled for various medical reasons, 3 subjects had cystotomies thus requiring prolonged catheterization for 1-2 weeks and 1 subject withdrew after randomization.

Retrograde Fill Voiding Trial Method
Bladder drained w/ indwelling foley catheter, then retrograde filled w/ 300cc sterile water. Catheter is removed. Patient voids w/in 20 min (if unable to void after 20 minutes, she will be discharged home with a catheter secondary to voiding dysfunction). Patient subjectively quantify their force of stream via visual analog scale (VAS) scale (however this information will only be used for research purposes). If she voids \>/= 2/3 (200cc) the catheter will remain out as she will have passed her voiding trial. If she voids \<200cc she will be discharged home with a catheter and instructed to follow-up in 2-5 days for an in-office retrograde voiding trial. TOV (trial of void): 1 of 2 tests to assess bladder function after vaginal apex suspension surgery with or without mid-urethral sling. catheter: If subject unable to void adequately, a Foley catheter will be placed as per protocol and the subject discharged home with catheter.
Force of Stream (FAST) Voiding Trial Method
Bladder drained w/ indwelling foley catheter, then retrograde filled w/ 300cc sterile water. Catheter is removed. Patient voids w/in 20 minutes (if unable to void after 20 minutes, discharged home w/ a catheter secondary to voiding dysfunction). The patient will subjectively quantify their force of stream via VAS scale. If VAS scale \>/=50 (\>/=50%) the catheter will remain out, patient is discharged home without measuring a PVR (postvoid residual). If VAS scale is from 0-49 (=0-49%) a PVR will be checked via bladder scan. If PVR is \<500cc, the patient will be discharged without a catheter; if PVR is \>/=500cc, the patient will be discharged with a catheter. If she is discharged with an indwelling foley catheter, she will have an in-office retrograde voiding trial in 2-5 days TOV: 1 of 2 tests to assess bladder function after vaginal apex suspension surgery with or without mid-urethral sling catheter: If subject is unable to void adequately
