Short Form-12 (SF-12) Survey life (HRQoL). Results A negative correlation DRA period recorded (ρ=0.0001). following categories showed significant positive dysfunction: Organ Prolapse Distress Inventory-6 (POPDI-6) corelated positively with (ρ =0.01); Colorectal-Anal Inventory-8 (CRAD-8) =0.02); Urinary (UDI-6) =0.00). There no =0.8). Conclusion discovered be strong predictor such as prolapse, colorectal-anal urine distress. evidence link or HRQoL.
