Summary

The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of pelvic floor muscle and abdominal training in reproductive-age patients with stress urinary incontinence.

This prospective randomized controlled design study included 64 female patients aged 18-49 years with stress urinary incontinence. The patients were divided into 2 groups (32 PFMT "Pelvic Floor Muscle Training" and 32 PFMT+AT "Abdominal Training") by computer-based randomization. The stress urinary incontinence type was assessed by a stress test, and the pelvic floor muscle strength was measured with a home biofeedback device. Voiding functions were assessed by a 3-day voiding diary and uroflowmetric test. The UDI-6 scale was used to assess the urinary symptoms, and the IIQ-7 scale was used to assess the quality of life. The follow-up measurements of both groups were obtained in the 0th, 4th, and 8th weeks.
