title: [Urodynamic results before and following vaginal electrostimulation in the treatment of urinary incontinence in the female].
abstract: In this study we demonstrate our first experience with vaginal electrostimulation in the treatment of stress incontinence in women. In the group of 26 incontinent female patients there was described a very good effect in all cases (42%) and a slight improvement was noted in 9 cases (34%) at the same time. Our results correspond with other similar presented studies. The clinical improvement was verified in the urodynamic study. There were noted: the increase of maximal (P less than 0.05) and closure pressure (P less than 0.05) of the urethra, the increase of transmission factor (P less than 0.01) and of maximum of EMG activity of the sphincter (P less than 0.005), as well as an improvement of compliance of the bladder (P less than 0.01) and of volume in the first desire to void (P less than 0.01). We can conclude that this method of intermittent vaginal electrostimulation is suitable in the treatment of female stress incontinence.
