Method for Vaginal Skin Biomechanical Evaluation |
摘要 |
A method and technique to measure vaginal skin biomechanical properties in vivo by applying a temporary deforming force to the vaginal skin while using sensors to monitor and record the vaginal skins response to the deforming force as well as how it responds after the deforming force is removed. By placing a female participant in the correct anatomical position and employing a vaginal biomechanical evaluation tool to temporarily distort and measure the vaginal skin an examiner is able to obtain measurements for biomechanical properties of the vaginal skin. These measurements may allow clinicians and medical researchers to understand a woman's vaginal tissue quality, response to treatment, and risk for future pelvic floor disorders more completely in order to take appropriate prophylactic or corrective action.
