Ultrasound and walking tests for stress incontinence
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how the pelvic floor changes after menopause and whether simple tests like ultrasound and checking how you walk can help understand stress incontinence. It may help find better ways to diagnose this condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares how women with and without mild stress urinary incontinence walk. It may help understand how incontinence affects movement and balance.
This trial tests different ways to strengthen pelvic floor muscles for women who leak urine when they cough, sneeze, or exercise. It aims to find the best technique to improve bladder control.
This trial tests whether combining pelvic floor muscle training with vaginal estrogen therapy can help postmenopausal women with stress urinary incontinence. If you leak urine when you cough, sneeze, or exercise, this treatment may strengthen your pelvic floor and improve bladder control.
This trial tests whether special pelvic floor exercises can improve balance and reduce the risk of falls in women who have urinary incontinence after menopause. If you are age 50–60, have bladder leakage, and feel unsteady, this study may help you.
This study compares how the pelvic floor (muscles that support bladder and bowel) moves in women with and without stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when coughing, sneezing, or exercising). Researchers are building a tool to better assess pelvic floor health in Chinese women.
This study looks at how the bladder and urethra work during urodynamic testing in people who need that test. It uses ultrasound and pressure measurements to understand bladder function better.
