What this trial studies
This study explores the feasibility of using tele-rehabilitation to provide remote healthcare services for women suffering from stress urinary incontinence (SUI). It aims to improve access to physical therapy and management of pelvic floor dysfunction through digital communication tools. The study includes women aged 20-65 who experience SUI at least once a week and are capable of using online platforms. The intervention involves the use of a perineometer device for physiotherapy, allowing participants to engage in rehabilitation from home.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are females aged 20-65 who experience stress urinary incontinence at least once a week and can use online communication tools.
Not a fit: Patients who are pregnant, have had previous surgery for SUI, or have certain neurological or psychiatric disorders may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could enhance access to effective treatment for women with stress urinary incontinence, improving their quality of life.
How similar studies have performed: While tele-rehabilitation is a growing field, this specific approach to treating stress urinary incontinence is relatively novel and has not been extensively tested in previous studies.
