The Canadian Urological Society


The Canadian Urological Society has just released an updated guideline for adult urinary incontinence which supports the use of conservative management before medication in all patient groups.  This is a well done summary of current literature and can be an adjunct to marketing efforts of PTs.

Therapists might also be interested in the 2011 guideline on prostatitis.  It summarizes the 4 categories, diagnosis and treatment.  It does include category 3 CPPS and recognizes the possibility of massage of trigger points.  However, it also points out that there is not enough high level research to fully support the treatment.  Keep those research projects going!
