What predicts and what mediates the response of urge urinary incontinence to biofeedback?


ABSTRACT: To better target a behavioral approach for urge urinary incontinence (UUI) and enhance its efficacy by (1) identifying predictors of response to biofeedback-assisted pelvic muscle training (BFB), and (2) determining factors that mediate response.BFB (four biweekly visits) was administered to 183 women?>?60 years (mean?= 73.6). Before and after intervention, all underwent comprehensive evaluation and videourodynamic testing. Postulated predictors and mediators from four urodynamic domains, specified a priori, were correlated with reduction in UUI frequency.Median UUI frequency decreased from 3.2/day to 1/day (P?=0.0001). UUI improved by ?50% in 55% of subjects and by 100% in 13% of subjects. Frequent UUI predicted poor response (P?
