Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of the electromyography component of the company's pelvic health product in a patient population with stress urinary incontinence to treatment with pelvic floor physical therapy.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does treatment with the device under study improve symptoms of stress urinary incontinence as measured by the ICIQ when compared to pelvic floor physical therapy?

Does treatment with the device under study combined with pelvic floor physical therapy improve symptoms of stress urinary incontinence as measured by the ICIQ when compared to pelvic floor physical therapy alone and treatment with the device alone?

Participants will be given one of three treatments:

1. The devices under study alone
2. The device under study plus 4 weekly visits with a pelvic floor physical therapist
3. Four weekly visits with a physical therapist alone Participants will perform a standardized pelvic floor muscle training program 10 minutes a day, four times a week for 4 weeks. There will be a mid-study check in to assure all devices are functioning appropriately. At the end of the study, participants will complete a post-treatment urinary incontinence symptom questionnaire(ICIQ).
