Does Pelvic Floor Muscle Training
Really Help?





Fourteen trials involving 836 women
Women who did pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) were more likely to report :
Cured or improved
Better continence specific quality of life
Experienced fewer incontinence episodes per day
Less leakage on pad test
Stress urinary incontinence required longer duration of training vs urge urinary
incontinence
Women with stress urinary incontinence best outcome if participate in PFMT
program for at least three months
Recommended PFMT should be 1st line conservative treatment in stress, urge and
mixed incontinence
Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2010 Jan 20;(1):CD005654.
Pelvic floor muscle training versus no treatment, or inactive control treatments, for urinary incontinence in women.

Which is best: Medications or
Behavioral Treatment?



Each treatment intervention is efficacious
Decision based on the patient's severity of symptoms, tolerability, compliance and
satisfaction with the treatment
Combination of behavioral therapy and OAB drug intervention:
Best patient satisfaction and perceived improvement
Reduction of bladder symptoms
Most practical and cost effective for optimal management of patients with OAB
Adv Urol. 2009:345324. Epub 2009 Dec 15.
Behavioral intervention versus pharmacotherapy or their combinations in the management of overactive bladder dysfunction
Acupuncture

12 major meridians in traditional Chinese medicine (TMC) that correspond to organ systems

Bladder imbalances can stem from the lungs, heart, spleen, bladder, kidneys or liver

Kidneys’ energy, or “qi” plays a role in urinary continence

Chinese concepts of “yin” and “yang”
Bladder’s yin function affects urge incontinence
Kidney yin affects stress incontinence
Kidney yang associated with nocturia and ED

Can Rushing to the Bathroom Cause
Fractures?





>6,000 community dwelling women completed questionnaire
25% of women had weekly or more frequent urge incontinence, 19% stress
incontinence, 12% mixed incontinence
Weekly or more frequent urge incontinence was associated with an increased risk of
falls and fractures in older women
Urinary frequency, nocturia, and rushing to the bathroom to avoid urge incontinent
episodes most likely increase the risk of falling, which then results in fractures
Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of urge incontinence may decrease the
risk of fracture.

Urinary incontinence: does it increase risk for falls and fractures? Study of Osteoporotic Fractures Research Group.

Risk for Falls


Urge urinary incontinence associated with a
modest increase in falls
Falls prevention programs need to include an
assessment of incontinence

Results:
After 3 months the biofeedback group erectile function was significantly improved
Control group significantly improved 3 months later
After 6 months 40% regained normal erectile function, 35.5% improved, 24.5% failed to improve
