Posturography Rehabilitation and Pelvic Floor Training on Urinary Incontinence in Women
Sponsor: Mohammed V University in Rabat
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether lumbopelvic postural rehabilitation combined with pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is more effective than PFMT alone in women with urinary incontinence. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the addition of lumbopelvic postural rehabilitation improve the severity of urinary incontinence as measured by the ICIQ-UI-SF questionnaire? * Does it improve urinary symptom profile, pelvic floor muscle strength, patient-reported overall improvement, and quality of life compared to PFMT alone? Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: * Experimental group (Group A): PFMT (3 sessions/week) plus lumbopelvic postural rehabilitation (2 sessions/week) for 12 weeks. * Control group (Group B): PFMT alone (3 sessions/week) for 12 weeks. Participants will perform pelvic floor exercises in supine and seated positions, with supervised sessions at the hospital and home exercises. Postural rehabilitation includes stability and mobility exercises for the lumbopelvic region using Posturography. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline, at 6 weeks, and at 12 weeks.

Conditions
Interventions
Pelvic Floor Muscle Training
Pelvic floor training consists of voluntary contractions of the pelvic floor muscles, using short, rapid contractions combined with slow, sustained contractions, aimed at improving strength and endurance. Training is performed in supine and seated positions, with one supervised session per week at the hospital and three home sessions per week, over a total duration of 12 weeks.
Posturography Rehabilitation
Postural rehabilitation consists of seated exercises focusing on stability and mobility of the lumbopelvic region, using posturography. Sessions last 30 minutes, conducted twice weekly, over a total duration of 12 weeks.
