On Thursday July 27, Friday July 28 and Saturday July 29, part of our health team attended the VI Congress of the Chilean Society of Urogynecology and Pelvic Floor with the aim of acquiring new tools to continue providing the best care to all our users.

The event held in the city of Viña del Mar, was made up of various activities, both prior to the congress and at the congress itself, where our kinesiologists Belén Sánchez and Macarena Sola, and our nurse and assistant director of health Constanza Olivares, participated in these instances, including the workshop "Chronic Constipation: Self-regulation techniques", where new tools were provided, such as manual therapy, in order to incorporate it in the management of patients with bladder and bowel dysfunctions who are referred to our Corporation.

In addition, one of our Urodynamic Physicians, Dr. Carlos Finsterbusch, participated as a speaker at the Congress with the topic "Transition in pediatric patients with urological pathologies to adult services", making an incredible presentation in front of all the attendees.
