IMPORTANCE: We need a systematic approach to understanding health service utilization behavior in women with pelvic floor symptoms in the United States.
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of pelvic floor care utilization and identify its barriers and promotors using Andersen's model, which theorizes care-seeking behavior with individual care needs, resources, predispositions, and macrostructures.
DESIGN: This was a systematic search of studies on care-seeking patterns in women with symptomatic pelvic floor disorders, which included pelvic organ prolapse, lower urinary tract symptoms, and anal incontinence. We then performed meta-analyses with random-effects models and descriptive analysis to determine utilization rate and the impact of each identified determinant.
RESULTS: The pooled utilization rate was 37% (95% confidence interval [CI], 30%-45%). Determinants were identified across all domains except at the macrostructure level. For individual care needs, increased symptom severity or duration and a history of depression (odds ratio [OR], 1.27; 95% CI, 1.07-1.51) were associated with higher utilization. In the resources domain, having social support and established primary/secondary care were promotors, whereas higher income and employed status trended as barriers. Under predispositions, age ≥50 years (OR, 1.29; 95% CI, 1.05-1.60), and pelvic floor awareness were associated with utilization, whereas Asian (OR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.51-0.72) and Black (OR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.55-1.08) women as well as women experiencing fear, misinformation, or normalization of pelvic floor disorders had decreased utilization.
CONCLUSIONS: This review identified a low utilization rate for pelvic floor care and revealed multilayered, actionable items affecting care-seeking behavior. It highlights the need for more inclusive and multifaceted approaches in future pelvic floor disparity research and equity interventions.
