Detailed Description

The required sample size has been calculated using IBM© Sample Power© version 3 .The primary outcome measure is the prevalence of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in the 1st and 3rd trimesters.

Accordingly, it is estimated that a sample of 240 patients in either study group would have a power of 80% (beta error, 0.2) to detect a statistically significant difference of 9% between the two groups as regards the incidence of SUI.

The incidence of SUI is assumed to equal 10% in the 1st trimester. The prevalence of SUI in the 3rd trimester is assumed to equal 10% under the null hypothesis and to equal 19% under the alternative hypothesis.

This calculation used a two-sided z test with a confidence level of 95% (alpha error, 0.05).

Data will be collected, tabulated, then analyzed using IBM© SPSS© Statistics version 22.

Normally distributed numerical data will be presented as mean and SD, and skewed data as median and inter-quartile range.

Qualitative data will be presented as number and percentage.Comparison of normally distributed numerical data will be done using the unpaired Student t test. Skewed data will be compared using the Mann-Whitney U test.

Categorical data will be compared using the chi-squared test, or Fisher's exact test when appropriate.

A two-sided p-value <0.05 will be considered statistically significant .

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
First trimester
women during first trimester(less than 14 weeks of pregnancy) will complete self-reported questionnaires and undergo clinical examination to confirm the stress incontinence.
a questionnaire is given to each woman to determine the urinary incontinence and it's impact on quality of life.
Third trimester
women during third trimester(more than 28 weeks of pregnancy) will complete self-reported questionnaires and undergo clinical examination to confirm the stress incontinence.
a questionnaire is given to each woman to determine the urinary incontinence and it's impact on quality of life.
