Efficacy and Safety of Extracorporeal Biofeedback

Stress urinary incontinence is the most common type of female incontinence. The efficacy of pelvic floor muscle training with biofeedback has been already proved in many studies. But intravaginal probe is one of the limitation. So, the purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of extracorporeal biofeedback device with pelvic floor muscle training.
