    MFP #44: The Survey of Barriers for Vaginal Access Surgery Study ? A Conversation with Dr. Gabriela Halder, MD, MPH
    Aug 28 2025

    Welcome to MIGS Front Page episode with our host, Dr. Richard Hsu!

    In this episode of the JMIG podcast, we're excited to chat with Dr. Gabriela Halder, Assistant Professor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Division of Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery at the University of Alabama Birmingham. We're diving into her study: "The Survey of Barriers for Vaginal Access Surgery Study."

    Dr. Halder shares the story behind this eye-opening survey of over 500 gynecologic surgeons and what she discovered about the current state of vaginal hysterectomy practice. You'll be surprised to learn that while most surgeons (82.8%) agree vaginal hysterectomies are crucial for women's health, there are still significant hurdles preventing their widespread use. We explore everything from the "cycle of low experience" to cultural shifts in surgical training, and why this matters for both surgeons and patients.

    Whether you're a seasoned surgeon, resident, or just curious about the evolution of gynecologic surgery, this conversation provides insights that could shape how we approach surgical training and practice moving forward.

    MFP #43: Does Tranexamic Acid Reduce Blood Loss in Total Colpocleisis? A Conversation with Dr. Colleen McDermott
    Jun 26 2025

    Welcome to MIGS Front Page episode with our new host, Dr. Jenny Wu.

    In this episode of the JMIG podcast, we’re joined by Dr. Colleen McDermott, Division Head of Urogynecology at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto, to discuss her recently published randomized controlled trial: “Does Intravenous Tranexamic Acid Reduce Blood Loss at the Time of Total Colpocleisis?”

    Dr. McDermott walks us through the motivation behind the study, the challenges of conducting a double-blind placebo-controlled trial in a surgical setting, and what her findings mean for the future of perioperative care in urogynecology. We also explore whether TXA should be used prophylactically during prolapse surgery and what next steps are on the research horizon.

    Tune in to hear directly from the author and gain insights that could inform your clinical practice.
