Type III stress urinary incontinence: response to interdisciplinary pelvic physiotherapy.
The purpose of this case study is to report one patient's outcome following a 10-week course of interdisciplinary pelvic physiotherapy. The patient was diagnosed with intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD), a subset of Type III stress urinary incontinence, and sensory urge with multichannel urodynamic evaluation. Subjective data were collected pre and post-therapy at 1-month and 3-month followup visits. Outcome data reflect a pad reduction of 70%, reduction of nocturia by 33%, and a 20% reduction in urinary frequency and sensory urgency events.
