Abstract
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is common and is strongly related to pregnancy and childbirth. Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is recommended as the first line conservative treatment for SUI. However, there is no consensus on how PFMT should be best performed. The study aims to evaluate the effects of mobile app-based PFMT for primigravid women with SUI in comparison to conventional PFMT. Participants were recruited in the obstetric clinic of a tertiary maternity hospital in Hangzhou, a provincial capital in eastern China, from January to April 2018.
