21: Characterizing anxiety at the first encounter in women presenting to the urogynecology clinic: the Caf é Study

Anxiety can be measured in various ways. State anxiety is temporary and is sensitive to change, while trait anxiety is a generalized propensity to be anxious. Our objective is to characterize the reasons for anxiety in women presenting for their initial urogynecologic consultation, to measure the change in participant anxiety after the visit, and to correlate the degree of anxiety improvement with visit satisfaction.
