The Effectiveness of Transvaginal Radiofrequency in Women With Stress Urinary Incontinence

"During each session the patient is lying face up, with knees bent and feet resting on the stretcher.~Then, the vaginal probe is introduced into the cavity using a lubricant suitable for intracavitary use and radiofrequency. The device is started at 15% intensity and adapting to a 10-point Likert scale, at point 3 or 4 of intensity.~At the same time that the radiofrequency is applied, pelvic floor contractions are performed guided by the physiotherapist, and these contractions are three:~* 10 fast contractions of one second each, with 10 seconds of rest.~* 5 seconds of sustained contraction and 10 seconds of rest.~* 10 seconds of contraction maintained with 10 seconds of rest.~The contraction maintenance time will be adapted to what each woman can keep the pelvic floor contracted, with a view to the goal being to complete these exercises cyclically during the entire session."

"The intervention is exactly the same as the group RF + PFMT, unlike the non-functioning of the RF in the patients belonging to this group.~The patient is lying face up, with knees bent and feet resting on the stretcher. Then, the vaginal probe is introduced into the cavity using a lubricant suitable for intracavitary use and radiofrequency, the device is started at 15% intensity, but in this case, the program does not work or apply radiofrequency to the patients.~At the same time, that the radiofrequency's probe is applied, pelvic floor contractions are performed guided by the physiotherapist, and these contractions are the three named in the Radiofrequency + PFMT.~The contraction maintenance time will be adapted to what each woman can keep the pelvic floor contracted, with a view to the goal being to complete these exercises cyclically during the entire session."
