August 27, 2021 updated by: Riphah International University

Comparison of Adductor Strengthening and Pelvic Floor Muscle Strengthening Exercises on Stress Incontinence in Gym Females

Stress incontinence is common form of urinary incontinence in females. The theme is to test if pelvic floor muscle training can be augmented by incorporating adductor muscle strengthening. Group A: with pelvic floor muscle strengthening plus adductor is strengthening. Group B: with pelvic floor muscle strengthening.

Detailed Description

Stress incontinence is common form of urinary incontinence in females. When it develops in gym doing women, it badly affects their performance and result in psychosocial problems in addition to the barriers that already have been resulted from incontinence. This study combines simple regime of hip adductor a strengthening with pelvic floor muscles. The theme is to test if pelvic floor muscle training can be augmented by incorporating adductor muscle strengthening. If this comes out to be effective, this can be great contribution to gym doing females to improve their urinary incontinence related impairments. Woman would be encouraged to continue regular exercise. This will be randomized clinical trial. There are two groups for the compression of adductors strengthening and pelvic floor muscle strengthening. Group A: with pelvic floor muscle strengthening plus adductor is strengthening. Group B: with pelvic floor muscle strengthening. The collected data will be entered in Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 20.0, Descriptive and Inferential statists will be applied. Results and conclusion will be drawn.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Urinary Distress Inventory (UDI-6)
Time Frame: 8 weeks

It is 6 point scale No= 0, Not at all= 1, Somewhat= 2, Moderately= 3, Quite a bit= 4.

Add all scores and multiply by 6 then multiply by 25 for the scale score

The UDI-6 Total Score of 33.33 was determined to be the optimal cutoff for distinguishing between symptomatic and asymptomatic women.

For UDI-6 scores more than 33.33 indicate higher distress caused by urinary incontinence symptoms.
8 weeks
The Revised Urinary Incontinence Scale (RUIS)
Time Frame: 8 weeks

It is a 5 point scale with each point contain 3 to 4option.

Possible score range of 0 - 16

A score of less than 4 indicates that the patient has no urinary incontinence

a score of 4-8 is considered mild.

a score of 9-12 is considered moderate.

a score of 13 or above is considered severe.
8 weeks
