简要总结
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.
详细描述
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.

主要结局
Change in urinary incontinence
时间窗: 8 weeks
We will measure it using the "International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form (ICIQ-SF) - Portuguese version", pre and post treatment, to assess if there are any changes in bladder control after the protocols. It consists of 3 scored items which evaluate the frequency, volume of leakage and overall impact of incontinence. The overall score ranges from 0 to 21, with greater values indicating increased severity. Klovning et al (2009) says that ICIQ-SF may be divided into the following four severity categories of UI: slight (1-5), moderate (6-12), severe (13-18) and very severe (19-21). Lim et al (2019) suggested that for women undergoing nonsurgical treatments for incontinence, reductions of 4 points in ICIQ-UI SF are perceived as clinically meaningful.
