About this trial

This is an interventional other trial for Pelvic Floor Disorders focused on measuring pelvic floor, electrical stimulation, bladder, ultrasound

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 80 Years (Adult, Older Adult)FemaleAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age:18-80y
  • Gender: female

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Moderate-severe stress incontinence*: As determined by self-reported >3 accidents in 24-hr period
  • Currently pregnant, may be pregnant (Unsure pre and peri-menopausal women should take a pregnancy test.)
  • Active urinary tract infection (UTI)
  • Pelvic pain, Painful bladder syndrome, underlying neurologic/neuromuscular disorder that may impact ability to partake in the trial
  • implanted cardiac device or untreated cardiac arrhythmia
  • Obesity as defined by BMI >= 30 (height, weight recorded)
  • Anyone with impaired decision making, drug or alcohol dependence, or potentially suicidal.
  • Anyone who lacks the capacity to consent for themselves or who requires a legal representative to give informed consent * Stress urinary incontinence: as determined by an answer of "Yes" to a standard question (from King's Health Questionnaire): "Do you lose urine with physical activities such as coughing, sneezing, running?"

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Surface electrical stimulation

Arm Description

Each subject did a Kegel pelvic floor contraction, had the surface electrical stimulation turned on at highest comfortable intensity, did a Kegel contraction with surface electrical stimulation on, and had second electrical stimulation turned on.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Movement of the bladder
Visualization of movement of the bladder with transabdominal ultrasound

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Subjects will place a surface electrode on their perineal area after a bladder-filling protocol. Transabdominal ultrasound will image the base of the bladder at rest, voluntary pelvic floor contraction, with the surface electrical stimulation and with a combined pelvic floor contraction and electrical stimulation active.
