Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Vaginal Mesh Implants: Discussion
Dr. Cl?ona Murphy:
With regard to numbers contacting us, specifically, that would be 190 people. However, there may be people with side effects which were not as significant that would have been treated at urogynaecological or gynaecological clinics and have their symptoms resolved or treated. We are aware that those who contacted us as mesh injured patients would be a small subset of those with symptoms. There is an acknowledgement in the CMO's report that there was under-reporting.
