Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Pelvic floor surface electromyography (sEMG) activity by means of intravaginal electrode.<br>Measured parameters: mean amplitude (% MVC) and variability of the signal (the variability of data around the mean value of the selected period of the analysis, expressed as %MVC) [Pelvic floor surface electromyography (sEMG) activity was recorded during three experimental trials limited to 30s, 60s and 90s.];Mean and median frequency of the pelvic floor muscles sEMG [During the 90-second sEMG recordings]
