“…Urinary incontinence may be defined according to patient's symptoms as: 1) stress UI (SUI) as the complaint of involuntary leakage on effort or exertion, or on sneezing Conservatives modalities include bladder training (based on voiding dairy), lifestyle recommendations, pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT), manometric or electromyography (EMG), biofeedback (BFB), and pharmacotherapy (1,5,6). Surgical treatment includes slings, bulking agents, colposuspension, bladder augmentation, and sacral neuromodulation (1,5,6).…”

“…It is scored from 0 to 21; the higher the score, greater the severity (Table 1) (5,6). A score of 21 corresponds to total incontinence, while a score of 0 reflects complete continence (5,6). The I-QOL specifically measures the QoL in UI.…”

“…For a better interpretation, it is transformed to a scale from 0 to 100. The I-QOL is divided to 3 subscales: limitation of activity or behavior (LB) with 8 items, psychosocial Impact (PI) with 9 items, and social embarrassment (SE) with 5 items (Table 2) (5,6).…”

Objectives: This study aimed at examining if a 6-session protocol of tonic-phasic exercises using manometric biofeedback (BFB) is capable of improving quality of life (QoL) and muscular strength in patients with urinary incontinence (UI). Methods: A prospective quasi-experimental before-after study was performed on 31 patients with Urinary Incontinence (UI) referred to the rehabilitation department of Santa Cristina's University hospital, Madrid, Spain. The study was performed from January to December 2016. At initial evaluation, affiliation of data, predisposing factors, and type of UI were recorded. Patients were given lifestyle recommendations and international consultation on incontinence questionnaire short form (ICIQ-SF)/ incontinence quality-of-life measure (I-QOL) questionnaires/scales to be fulfilled at the beginning/end of treatment. Manometric evaluation was recorded at initial/final evaluation by MYOMED ® 932. Manometric-BFB protocol consisted of a 30-minute session of tonic/phasic exercises (15 minutes each), 2 times a week for up to 6 sessions, supervised by a physiotherapist. Results:Mean age was 52 ± 12.1 years. Overall, 96.7% (n = 31) of the participants were females. Maximum and mean strength of pelvic floor contraction was 24 ± 17.72 and 4.9 ± 4.1 mmHg, and increased significantly after treatment to 35 ± 20.85 and 7.45 ± 4.92 mmHg (P < 0.01). The mean ICIQ-SF score was 9.13 ± 5.18 and decreased significantly to 6.13 ± 4.75 (P = 0.003). The mean I-QoL score increased significantly from 70.33 ± 22.12 to 81.25 ± 16.72 (P = 0.0017). The I-QoL Limiting Behaviour (LB)-subscale raised from 68.38 ± 23.33 to 80 ± 16.56 (P = 0.0015); I-QoL Psychosocial Impact (PI)-subscale increased from 77.43 ± 24.51 to 80 ± 17.47 (p = 0.0152); and I-QoL social embarrassment (SE)-subscale incremented from 60.72 ± 22.37 to 74.37 ± 20.86 (P = 0.0007). Conclusions:Manometric-BFB protocol is capable of decreasing UI and to improve QoL and manometric values. This reduced protocol could be applied to other public and private institutions and it could have an economical impact on the health system and on patients' economy.

Abstract(a) To correlate the clinical with the urodynamic diagnosis in a series of patients with UUI (urgency urinary incontinence) and SUI (stress urinary incontinence); (b) establish age, clinical and urodynamic differences; and (c) demonstrate the effectiveness of individualized rehabilitation treatment based on the clinical-urodynamic diagnosis in patients with SUI and UUI in the daily clinical practice of a third-level rehabilitation service. Retrospective study of 60 patients with SUI and UUI. Urodynamic study: (a) free flowmetry; (b) filling cystomanometry; (c) pressure-flow study. Outcome variables: daytime (DUF) and nighttime (NUF) urinary frequency, strength of the pelvic floor muscles (PFM) measured by manometry (maximum and mean pressure), and use of absorbents/day. Rehabilitation treatment: (a) pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT); (b) biofeedback (BFB), transcutaneous neuromodulation of the posterior tibial nerve (TTNM). Age, clinical, and urodynamic differences have been observed between patients with UUI versus SUI. UUI is more frequent in older patients (UUI 67.3 ± 10.19 years vs SUI 58.6 ± 8.54 years), p = 0.0028. Patients with UUI, when compared with patients with SUI, present more episodes of DUF (7.7 ± 5.1 vs 5.5 ± 3.99) and NUF (2.51 ± 1.67 vs 1.46 ± 1.42). Patients with SUI use more absorbents/day than patients with UUI (2.7 ± 1.53 vs 1.37 ± 1.5), p = 0.0243. The urodynamic study (UDS) confirmed the clinical diagnosis in UUI in 64.7%, while in SUI, it was only confirmed in 35.1%. In the urodynamic analysis (free flowmetry), patients with UUI have smaller bladders than patients with SUI (voiding volume in UUI 275.8 ± 178.95 vs 411.03 ± 203.62 in SUI), p = 0.083. The maximum flow (Qmax) is higher in patients with SUI compared to UUI (19.6 ± 7.07 vs 16.06 ± 8.54), p = 0.0836. In filling cystomanometry, the bladders of patients with UUI are smaller than those with SUI (bladder capacity UUI 266.3 ± 52.76 vs 308.6 ± 49.72 ml in SUI), p = 0.023. In SUI, the BFB/PFMT significantly improved DUF, NUF, PFM pressure, and absorbent use. In UUI, the BFB plus TTNM improved DUF, NUF, and the maximum and mean PFM pressure with statistical difference, while the use of absorbents decreased with a tendency to significance. There are age, clinical, manometric, and urodynamic differences in patients with UUI when compared with patients with SUI. UUI occurs in older patients; they present a greater number of daytime and nocturnal urinary frequency episodes and use fewer absorbents than patients with SUI. Patients with UUI evacuate a smaller urine volume have a lower peak flow (in flowmetry) and a lower bladder capacity (in cystomanometry) than patients with SUI. The rehabilitation treatment proposed in daily clinical practice (PFMT/BFB with or without TTNM improves SUI and UUI). In this study, the UDS has shown a greater clinical-urodynamic correlation in UUI than in SUI.
