Patients are classified as cured if the postoperative cough test (see Outcome 4 below) is negative and the degree of subjective suffering (see Outcome 2 below) improves to over 90% (VAS score of 0 or 1). Criteria for improvement are involuntary loss of only a few drops of urine during straining and an improvement of the degree of suffering to over 75% (VAS score of 2 or 3). All other patients are classified as therapeutic failures (even if they show marked improvement of one of the parameters compared with their preoperative status).
