Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of QRS®-1010 PelviCenter in female patients with stress urinary incontinence.

Based on the available data on magnetic stimulation, the investigators hypothesize that magnetic stimulation via QRS®-1010 PelviCenter will reduce the number and amount of urinary leakage upon exertion as well as improve patients' quality of life.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A total of 120 female patients will be randomly assigned into two treatment groups (active arm and sham arm) in a 1:1 ratio. The standard QRS®-1010 PelviCenter treatment plan involves 16 sessions of 20 minutes each. Each subject will attend 2 sessions per week (total 16 sessions).
