Filter by:Urinary incontinence is a frequent chronic condition in general population. It is even more frequent in people with chronic respiratory disease due to several factors, including but not limited to frequent cough. Urinary incontinence may be more frequent during exercise so that it may contribute to the general deconditioning associated with chronic respiratory disease. Although pulmonary rehabilitation is a cornerstone in the management of people with chronic respiratory disease to break this spiral of worsening dyspnea, little is known about the prevalence of urinary incontinence among those people referred for pulmonary rehabilitation nor about its impact on the effects of the program.
To evaluate how patient knowledge and confidence in decision making can be impacted by shared decision making in common urogynecology conditions.
The purpose of this study is to assess the influence of the body posture correcting therapy on pelvic floor muscles function and urinary incontinence problem.
The objective is to validate the use of ultrasound measurements (urethral mobility, movement of the ano-rectal angle, elastography measurements) in women with urinary incontiennce before and after pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) : inter and intra-observer reproducibility; correlation with clinical examination (modified Oxford scale); sensitivity to change before/after pelvic floor muscle training
To study the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) in female athletes from Castilla y León, as well as the category of athletics with the highest number of losses, the most incident risk factors and the bio-psycho-social consequences that it leads to.
Urinary incontinence (UI) symptoms are highly prevalent among women, and menopause is one of the risk factors for UI. During the menopausal transition, not only the hormonal secretion is changed but also the level of physical activity is affected. The time spent on physical activity is reduced in postmenopausal women. Studies have shown that physical activity acts in a bidirectional manner, exerting either a preventive or an aggravating effect on urinary incontinence. Individuals with sedentary lifestyle and insufficient physical activity (< 150 min/week) are at risk of developing UI, and regular physical activity exerts a protective effect in preventing UI, but the optimal type, duration, and intensity of exercise for the female older adult population remain unknown. In addition, objective measurements of pelvic floor muscle function is needed as the use of self-reported measures may cause response bias. The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of different intensity of exercise on pelvic floor muscle function and HRQoL in postmenopausal women with UI. The investigators hypothesize that (a) both high- and low-intensity physical activities can improve pelvic floor muscle strength and HRQoL in postmenopausal women with UI, and (b) the improvement in high-intensity group is higher than that in low-intensity group. A randomized trial will be conducted to compare the effect of different exercise intensity on pelvic floor muscle function in postmenopausal women with urinary incontinence (n=90).
Study is designed to assess the long-term clinical effects and safety profile of non-ablative Er:YAG (IncontiLase®) laser treatment, the durability of the results and the optimal treatment regimen for mild-to-severe stages of genuine female stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of high- and low-intensity PFMT with stabilization exercises in women with SUI
Aim: To verify the effects of the abdominal hypopressive technic (AHT) associate or not with pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) in urinary incontinence (UI) symptoms and pelvic floor muscle strength. Methods: Randomized controlled trial. Thirteen incontinent women were randomly divided into an AHT group or AHT+PFMC group. Outcome assessment was carried out using digital palpation (modified Oxford grading scale), Peritron perineometer, and the International Consultation Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF) questionnaire. The treatment protocol consisted of five twice-weekly, 40-min one-on-one sessions. The participants were assessed only at baseline and after the intervention. Results: It is expected that the group who performed PFMC will improve the maximal voluntary contractions (MVC) and improve urinary incontinence symptoms, while the hypopressive exercise does not.
This study was designed as an open label, feasibility, single-center, cross-over prospective study in women with stress urinary incontinence. Subjects served as their own control.
