Summary

Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) is described as an uncontrolled loss of urine which happens when physical activities such as running, jumping and lifting etc are carried out or when increased pressure to the bladder in everyday life is applied by simply sneezing or coughing.

There are various treatment options available - surgical operations, pelvic floor exercises/muscle training and electrical stimulation. This study aims to prove that using the Neurotech Vital device for 12 weeks can stimulate the pelvic floor muscles to strengthen and tone them and in doing so improving stress urinary incontinence. We are comparing the Neurotech Vital device with an altered Neurotech Vital device that does not give the same stimulation treatment. There is a 50% chance of you receiving the altered device, if you do, you will be offered the non-altered Neurotech vital device after your first 12 week treatment programme. Both devices are identical in looks, but give different stimulations through the skin contact electrodes.
