Mobile app vs. in-person pelvic floor exercises for leaky bladder
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways to treat stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when you cough, sneeze, or exercise): doing pelvic floor exercises using a smartphone app at home versus attending supervised in-person sessions. The study tests which approach works better and is easier for women to stick with.

This trial tests an adjustable treatment to reduce stress urinary incontinence (urine leaking when you cough, sneeze, or exercise). It’s for women who still leak after trying other treatments and who may be able to have surgery, while excluding certain bladder problems and health risks.
This study tests whether a home exercise program using a smartphone app can help women with stress or mixed urinary incontinence strengthen their pelvic floor muscles and reduce leakage.
This study tests a new device: a small vaginal probe connected to a mobile app. It may help strengthen your pelvic floor muscles to reduce stress urinary incontinence (leaking when you cough, sneeze, or exercise).
This study tests whether a pelvic floor training program delivered through a smartphone app can help first-time moms who leak urine after childbirth. The program is designed for women who had a vaginal delivery with certain risk factors for ongoing pelvic floor issues.
This study tests whether adding mental practice (imagining the exercises) to standard pelvic floor muscle training helps postmenopausal women with stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when you cough, sneeze, or exercise) improve their symptoms. It aims to see if this extra mental approach makes the training more effective.
This study tests whether special pelvic floor muscle exercises using modern tools can help women with stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when you cough, sneeze, or exercise). It may offer a non-surgical way to strengthen the muscles that control urine flow.
