About

This is a randomized blinded trial with non-probabilistic sampling for convenience. Our goal is to compare PFMT with intravaginal vibratory stimulus versus PFMT alone on the treatment of female urinary incontinence.

Full description

This is a randomized blinded trial with non-probabilistic sampling for convenience. Our goal is to compare PFMT with intravaginal vibratory stimulus versus PFMT alone on the treatment of female urinary incontinence. Women with an indication for conservative treatment of urinary incontinence will be referred to the Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy Team by the Medical Team of the Ambulatory of Urogynecology and Obstetrics of the Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre and those who are in compliance with the inclusion criteria proposed for the research will be invited to participate in the study.

Sex: Female

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers
