Pelvic floor muscle exercises are recommended as an initial treatment to women with stress urinary incontinence. This treatment is often unsuccessful because of patient noncompliance. A post-test, experimental control group design was used to examine Pender's (1992) concept of an external cue to act
The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of three conservative interventions: pelvic floor muscle training, bladder training, or both, on urodynamic parameters in women with urinary incontinence. Two hundred four women with genuine stress incontinence (GSI) or detrusor instability with or
In a study, the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of 69 women were analyzed to define the typical MRI appearance of the pelvic floor musculature in healthy subjects (n = 20) and women with urinary incontinence (UI) and/or genitourinary prolapse (GP) (n = 49). The following parameters were de
Maintenance of urinary continence is multifactorial and depends mainly on detrusor control and urethral closure function. The closure forces can be categorized as permanent closure forces active at rest, and adjunctive closure forces active during physical activities. The efficiency of these forces
