Summary

Stress urinary incontinence is common in men following prostate cancer surgery. Rehabilitative interventions incorporate pelvic floor muscle training, biofeedback, electrical stimulation, lifestyle changes, or a combination of these strategies. However, little is known about the physiological impact of whole-body vibration for stress urinary incontinence following radical prostatectomy. Participants: Sixty-one patients with mild Stress urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy.

Intervention: patients were randomly assigned into two groups: group 1 included 30 patients who received pelvic floor muscle training and whole-body vibration training with a frequency and amplitude of 20 Hz/ 2 mm for the first 2 sessions and 40 Hz/ 4 mm for the rest of intervention; while group 2 included 31 patients who performed only pelvic floor muscle training. The intervention in both groups was performed three times per week for 4 weeks.
