[How did COVID-19 pandemic change the way we attend the patients in an urogynaecological unit].

The current SARS-coronavirus type 2 pandemic caused, in few weeks, important changes in the health system organization and in the way we attend the patients. Urogynaecological diseases affect quality of life, but without life risk in most cases, so it is possible to delay. Moreover, urogynaecological diseases affect mostly women over 65 years old (a high risk population for contracting COVID-19). In this manuscript we summarise the current evidence about telemedicine efectivity to manage to pelvic floor dysfunctions and, in addition, the recommendations of Urogynaecological scientific societies during state of alarm. We describe the management of the different pelvic floor dysfunctions during COVID-19 pandemic and a proposal to organize the urogynaecological services to diagnose (visits and diagnostic investigations) and to treat (conservative, pharmacological or surgery) in the interpandemic period and in the future.
