摘要

What’s known on the subject? and What does the study add? class="unordered" style="list-style-type:disc">Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) affects 10–35% of women, and it is sometimes very distressful. Pelvic floor exercises are the first line of treatment, but access barriers or embarrassment may prevent women from seeking help. There is a need for new, simple, and effective ways to deliver treatment.Management of SUI without face-to-face contact is possible, and Internet-based treatment is a new, promising treatment alternative.
