Video-based education to improve urinary continence in women

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Women referred for pelvic floor rehabilitation for urinary incontinence will receive either a structured 4-week video education program (four weekly 20-minute videos) or an equivalent printed information document before starting standard physiotherapy. The videos cover pelvic floor anatomy, urinary and digestive physiology, and the pathophysiology and prevention of pelvic floor disorders. After the 4-week education period, participants proceed with usual pelvic floor rehabilitation and complete a urinary incontinence questionnaire to measure changes in symptoms. Outcomes will compare symptom scores between the video and paper information groups.
