Urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse knowledge
Time Frame: Baseline
The Prolapse and Incontinence Knowledge Questionnaire (PIKQ) is used to assess knowledge. It consists of two distinct scales: the first one measures knowledge about urinary incontinence knowledge, while the second one measures knowledge about pelvic organ prolapse. The total score of each scale can range from 0 to 12. Higher scores indicate greater knowledge.
