Long-term results of I-STOP sling for stress incontinence
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at the long-term safety and success of a small sling device called I-STOP that is surgically placed to support the bladder in women with stress urinary incontinence. It aims to see if this device stays effective over time and is well-tolerated.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
