What this trial studies

This study compares the effectiveness of different pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) methods to improve urinary incontinence recovery in men who have undergone radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: standard PFMT, somatosensory interactive PFMT, or standard PFMT combined with pelvic floor muscle magnetic stimulation. The study aims to determine which method provides the best outcomes for post-operative urinary incontinence.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could significantly improve recovery from urinary incontinence in men after prostate surgery.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promising results with pelvic floor muscle training for urinary incontinence, suggesting this approach may be effective.
