The results the of the comparative study of biofeedback with test electrostimulation of the pelvic floor muscles as monotherapy and in combination with extracorporeal magnetic stimulation of the pelvic floor muscles with functional infravesical obstruction in women

Introduction. The functional bladder outlet obstruction (fBOO) in women is one of the urgent and difficult tasks of functional urology. As a conservative treatment, pelvic floor muscle training is widely used, including using the method of biofeedback (BFB). Materials and methods. A comparative study of the results of mild-to-moderate fBOO treatment with the method of BFB with test electrostimulation of the pelvic floor muscles as monotherapy and in combination with electromagnetic stimulation of the pelvic floor muscles (EMS) was conducted. The evaluation of results was carried out with the use of PGI-I scale and uroflowmetry (UFM). A group of 92 patients with urodynamically confirmed fBOO was formed. Before the start of treatment all patients were randomly assigned to two groups. In group I (n = 46) the treatment was carried out using the BFB method (sessions - 2 times a week, total - 10). In group II (n = 46) in addition to the BFR all women were given EMS (sessions also 2 times a week, total - 10)...
