The paper presents various methods of the physical treatment used in healing
women with the stress urinary incontinence. It is emphasized that the
exercises for strengthening the pevic floor are effective in curing the
stress incontinence but the most efficient exercise program has not been
determined yet. Likewise, it is pointed out that the biofeedback
application, along with the exercise, is no more efficient than the
application of the exercises only but, still, much better results are
achieved by applying the biofeedback at the beginning of the treatment. In
order to evaluate the effects of the vaginal coni, electric and magnetic
simulations in treating women with the stress urinary incontinence further
explorations are necessary. Acta Medica Medianae 2003; 42(1):43-47.
