Pelvic floor muscle training adapted for urinary incontinence in multiple sclerosis: a randomized clinical trial.

Introduction And Hypothesis: Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) affect up to 80% of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). The present randomized, open-label, clinical trial examines the effectiveness, as a conservative treatment for LUTS, of a physiotherapist-guided pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) program adapted for patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and urinary incontinence (UI).

Methods: Forty-eight patients with RRMS were randomly assigned to a 12-week PFMT program with or without physiotherapist guidance.
