Brief Summary

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

Subjects will place a surface electrode on their perineal area after a bladder-filling protocol. Transabdominal ultrasound will image the base of the bladder at rest, voluntary pelvic floor contraction, with the surface electrical stimulation and with a combined pelvic floor contraction and electrical stimulation active.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Surface electrical stimulation

Each subject did a Kegel pelvic floor contraction, had the surface electrical stimulation turned on at highest comfortable intensity, did a Kegel contraction with surface electrical stimulation on, and had second electrical stimulation turned on.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL
