Dan Kirges PT Pelvic PT distance journal club Jan 6,2016
Purpose: Examine
the effectiveness of conservative management of post-prostatectomy
incontinence. Multiple intervention
options were investigated including pelvic floor muscle training with or
without biofeedback, e-stim, extra-corporeal magnetic innervation, compression
clamps and lifestyle changes.
Aim: Answer the question “Does conservative
management improve urinary incontinence post-prostatectomy within the first 12
months compared to time alone.”
Our journal club will
only focus on post-prostatectomy and not post-TURP at this time. Recording of journal club discussion included input from the Male Study group of the pelvic PT distance journal club consensus document. Recording can be accessed here. https://fccdl.in/w9RareCWK
