        Research orientation<\/h2>\n

        Dr. Chantal Dumoulin\u2019s research chair in Urogynecological Health and Aging focuses on the health of aging women. Studies deal mainly with urinary incontinence, nocturia, and genitourinary syndrome of menopause. More specifically, Dr. Dumoulin is studying the aging of the female urogynaecological system in order to better understand the physiopathology of urinary incontinence, nocturia, and genito-urinary syndrome of menopause among older women. She is also looking into the prevention and treatment of these problems as well as trying to identify women more likely to benefit from conservative treatment such as rehabilitation of the pelvic floor muscles. Moreover, she conducts systematic reviews and contributes every four years to the development of International Incontinence Clinical Practice Guidelines by chairing the conservative management chapter of the International Consultation on Incontinence book. \u00a0Her methodological expertise includes the development and psychometric evaluation of measurement tools as well as assessment of the efficacy of treatments using randomized clinical trials, clinical prediction rule development and systematic review.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
