The study aimed to compare the outcomes and complication rates of an adjustable single-incision mini-sling (SIMS) with standard mid-urethral slings (SMUS) for treating stress urinary incontinence in women.
Approximately 305 women participated in a multicenter trial across Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, where they were randomly assigned to either the SIMS or SMUS group and assessed before and after surgery.
One year later, both groups showed similar effectiveness, but the SIMS group reported experiencing less postoperative pain compared to the SMUS group.
