What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of home-based pelvic muscle training devices compared to traditional pelvic floor muscle training in patients with stress urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. Participants will be enrolled and assigned to either the home-based training group or the traditional training group, with their satisfaction assessed through questionnaires. The aim is to provide a convenient alternative to in-clinic training, potentially improving adherence and outcomes for patients. The study will also involve collaboration with information engineering specialists to develop the home-based training device.
