About this study

The purpose of this investigation is to compare the clinical benefits of using the Pelvital product, in comparison to a sham procedure as a noninvasive treatment for female incontinence

Read the detailed description

120 subjects with SUI will be recruited into a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled crossover trial. Subjects will be allocated in a 1:1 ratio (60 per arm) to either the control arm (PFMT) or the treatment arm (PFMT in conjunction with the Pelvital therapy). Subjects will conduct their respective therapy five minutes a day over the course of six weeks. At weeks two, four and six, the subjects will conduct bi-weekly check-ups. After six weeks, all patients in the control arm will have the option to cross over into the treatment arm if no improvement in symptoms has been shown.
