About this study

Controlled and randomized clinical trial performed at the Physiotherapy Outpatient Clinic at the Magalhães Neto Pavilion of ComHUPES / UFBA. Women aged between 30 and 65 years and diagnosis of SUI / IUM. The patients were allocated to two groups (GA) submitted to selective electrostimulation for tonic fiber, phasic fibers IIa / IIb and different times of electrical stimulation; (GB) used 50hz for all fibers by 20mm, both answered the questionnaire King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ).

Treatment and study plan

Electro-stimulation

Other

Intracavitary electrostimulation with Quark medical vaginal electrode for perineal muscle strengthening protocol.

Other names: electro physical therapy, dualpex 961 quark

Primary outcomes

contractile function of the perineal musculature

Time frame: 3 months

Perineal muscle function evaluated subjectively by vaginal touch using the PERFECT system to measure strength (graded from 0 to 5), strength (holding capacity of contraction recorded in seconds) and number of contractions of tonic and phasic fibers (ability to repeat muscle contractions perineal). Objectively, the vaginal cones were used to determine which load the patient was able to support (kit with 5 cones with weights ranging from 20 to 70g)

Secondary outcomes

King's Health Questionnaire

Time frame: 3 months

It allows qualitative evaluation of the impact of urinary incontinence on the quality of life of women, it is responsible for 20 questions, divided into 8 domains, in addition to these domains, there are two other independent scales: the first evaluates the severity of UI (severity measures) and the second, the presence and intensity of urinary symptoms through the scale of urinary symptoms (VAS) where there is a graduation from 0 to 10, where the higher the score, the higher the severity
