Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the study was to compare the effects of stabilization exercises and pelvic floor muscle training in women with stress urinary incontinence.

Description:

Stress urinary incontinence is involuntary urinary incontinence with increased intraabdominal pressure. Different exercise approaches such as pelvic floor exercises and stabilization exercises are used in these patients. There is a need for studies comparing the effects of these exercises.
