ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical effect of multiple precision behavioral therapy (MPBT) on mild to moderate stress urinary incontinence (SUI) with female sexual dysfunction (FSD) in women. METHODS: We randomly divided 90 female patients with mild to moderate SUI with FSD into three groups of an equal number: control group A, control group B and an MPBT group, treated by electrical stimulation, Kegel training and MPBT, respectively, all for 8 weeks. Using International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF), Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7), Female Sexual Function Indexes (FSFI) and Glazer protocol, we evaluated the clinical effects, recorded the cost of treatment, and compared them among the three groups of patients. RESULTS: Totally, 87 of the patients completed the treatment, 27 in control group A, 30 in control group B and 30 in the MPBT group. There was no significant difference in the baseline data among the three groups (P > 0.05). ICIQ-SF and IIQ-7 scores, FSFI and Glazer values were remarkably improved in the MPBT group after treatment (P < 0.05). The therapeutic effect was significantly better and the treatment cost markedly lower in the MPBT than in the control groups (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Multiple precision behavioral therapy can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of mild to moderate stress urinary incontinence and sexual dysfunction in women, with low cost and high safety.
