简要总结
This open-label proof-of-concept study is designed to evaluate the impact of the leva digital incontinence system on the treatment of stress and mixed urinary incontinence in women over a six week period. Subjects will participate in a 2.5 minute exercise program twice daily (performed at a clinic with therapist assistance 5x weekly, and at home once daily on weekdays and twice daily on weekends. Validated surveys (UDI-6, IIQ-7 and PGI-I) will be used to evaluate symptom relief. A battery of pelvic floor muscle exercises will be performed weekly to evaluate progress in muscle strengthening.

结局指标
主要结局
Symptoms of Urinary Incontinence at Baseline and at 6 Weeks
时间窗: 6 weeks
A validated, standardized questionnaire (the short form of the urogenital distress inventory, UDI-6) will be used to evaluate change in symptoms of urinary incontinence. Minimum score = 0, Maximum score = 100, lower scores indicate fewer symptoms.
次要结局
- Condition-specific Quality of Life Assessment (IIQ-7) at Baseline and 6 Weeks.(6 weeks)
- Pelvic Floor Muscle Performance (Mean Maximum Duration of Voluntary Pelvic Floor Muscle Contraction)(6 weeks)
- Number of Participants for Different Categories of Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I)(At 6 weeks)
