Indications: Prevention or treatment of
incontinence, using perineal probes or surface
electrodes.
Perineal electro-stimulation is carried out by means
of a vaginal or anal probe, characterised by a pair of
electrodes. The therapeutic goal is the improvement
of voluntary control of the perineal musculature (in
case of stress incontinence) or the reflex inhibition of
the detrusor muscle (in case of urge incontinence).
We should not expect immediate benefits, after the
first session. The main results will be obtained after
repeated sessions (at least 30, administered daily or
on alternate days, depending on the seriousness of
the problem). Any amazing improvements, after the
first sessions, should not induce the operator or the
patient to discontinue the treatment..
This user guide provides information for a safe use
of the equipment and guidance on perineal
electrostimulation and how effective this treatment
can be.
