Exercise after sling surgery to help bladder leakage
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial studies whether an easy, flexible exercise plan after mid-urethral sling surgery helps improve stress urinary incontinence (bladder leakage with coughing or activity). You may be asked to follow the exercise plan and attend follow-up visits for up to 2 years to see how symptoms change over time.

This study compares two procedures for stress urinary incontinence: a bulking agent injection and a single-incision sling. If you're a woman who leaks urine with activity, you may be randomly assigned to get one of these treatments to see which works better over time.
This study follows people who choose surgery using a synthetic under-the-urethra vaginal sling for stress urinary incontinence (urine leakage with coughing or exertion). It aims to track outcomes over time and help confirm the sling is safe and works as intended.
This trial studies how safe and effective a midurethral sling operation is for people with stress urinary incontinence (urine leakage with coughing, laughing, or exercise). It also requires special bladder testing before and after surgery to measure results.
This study compares two treatments for stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when you cough or sneeze) done at the same time as surgery to fix a dropped bladder or uterus. One treatment is a small gel injection (bulking), the other is a sling procedure that supports the urethra.
This trial tests if having fewer activity restrictions after sling surgery helps women recover better. It compares standard restrictions with a more relaxed set of rules for daily life.
This trial studies a surgery that uses the patient’s own tissue to place a supportive sling for stress urinary incontinence (leakage with coughing, sneezing, or exercise). It may help women who haven’t improved with conservative treatments or who prefer not to try more non-surgical options.
