Abstract
Ten women with urinary stress incontinence were treated with a new method of pelvic floor rehabilitation, using biofeedback training with a surface electrode inserted in the vagina and a catheter in the rectum. The effect of the training was determined by a pad-weighing test. The training taught the patients awareness of the pelvic floor muscles and how to avoid increases in abdominal pressure. Seven patients showed improved pad-weighing tests and 5 were fully continent after the training.
