INTRODUCTION
Female gymnasts put strain on their pelvic floor muscles with high impact exercises that increase their susceptibility for stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Moreover, they refrain from seeking medical attention because of embarrassment. This project seeks to quantify the prevalence of SUI in female gymnasts while also influencing conversation about SUI in the gymnastics community to alleviate its stigma. We hypothesize there to be a high prevalence of SUI in young female gymnasts compared to nonathletic females.

INTRODUCTION
Research suggests that narcotic pain medications are dramatically overprescribed. We hypothesize that narcotics are unnecessary in the majority of infants for postoperative pain control. In this series, we report our experience combining caudal blocks with a non-narcotic postoperative pathway as a means of completely eliminating postoperative narcotics following infant robotic pyeloplasty.

INTRODUCTION
The TrenGuard™ patient positioning device is a comprehensive patient restraint system for patient positioning when in Trendelenburg position during robotic surgery. This study aims to compare patient migration with the TrenGuard™ patient restraint system (TGPRS) to traditional patient restraint with surgical tape and egg crate foam bolsters (STECFB).
