Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
nurse specialist
Women were screened for a "weak pelvic floor" (modified Oxford score, MOS, ≤ 2) before being invited into the trial. The women were seen monthly after their initial assessment and training and were followed-up for their final assessment at 3 months.
Training
Women in both the practice nurse and specialist nurse groups were given supervised pelvic floor exercise training. After the initial training they were given a daily exercise regimen and seen at monthly intervals for three months. The practice nurses had attended a study day on supervising Pelvic Floor Muscle Training(PFMT)followed by practice sessions with patients overseen by the nurse specialist.

Control
Women were screened for a "weak pelvic floor" (modified Oxford score, MOS, ≤ 2) before being invited into the trial. The women were seen monthly after their initial assessment (but no training given) and were followed-up for their final assessment at 3 months.
