Brief Summary

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

background:Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is the most common type of urinary incontinence in women, as it involves involuntary leakage of urine , the current study was To determine the neuromodulation effect of Laser Therapy on Neurogenic Acupoints in female with stress urinary incontinence (SUI).

Detailed Description

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

Thirty women with SUI were randomly divided into two equal groups; the control group received pelvic floor muscle training , while the study group received the same pelvic floor muscle training in addition to laser acupuncture on neurogenic acupoints . The outcome measures were pelvic floor muscle strength (PFMS) , SUI severity assessed by Severity Index (SI) , and Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF). The outcome measures were assessed pre- and post-rehabilitation program.
