About this study

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

Read the detailed 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.

Being tested
Pelvic floor exercises, Stabilization exercises
Medical subject headings
Urinary Incontinence, Stress

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Pelvic floor exercisesOther

    Pelvic floor exercises for types I and II muscle fibers will be performed

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Urinary incontinence severity

    Urinary incontinence severity will be measured with A 1-hour pad test

    Measured: change from baseline at 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Urinary symptoms

    Urinary symptoms will be evaluated with International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form

    Measured: change from baseline at 8 weeks

  2. Life quality

    Life quality will be assessed with King's Health Questionnaire.

    Measured: change from baseline at 8 weeks

  3. Pelvic floor muscle activation response

    Pelvic floor muscle activation response will be measured with a portable EMG-Biofeedback device.

    Measured: change from baseline at 8 weeks

  4. Pelvic floor muscle strength

    Pelvic floor muscle strength will be evaluated with Modified Oxford Scale

    Measured: change from baseline at 8 weeks

  5. Core stability

    Core stability will be evaluated with Sahrmann Test using the pressure stabilizer.

    Measured: change from baseline at 8 weeks

  6. Balance

    Balance will be evaluated with Biodex Balance System as static and dynamic

    Measured: change from baseline at 8 weeks

  7. Spinal function

    Spinal function will be evaluated with the Spinal Mouse device in standing position.

    Measured: change from baseline at 8 weeks

  8. Subjective perception of improvement

    Subjective perception of improvement will be measured with a four-point Likert scale.

    Measured: After treatment (at 8 week)

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jan 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Seyda Toprak Celenay (+90312 906 1000, sydtoprak@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Urinary incontinence severity (time frame: change from baseline at 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05193435, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
