Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to decrease rates of urinary incontinence in older women by building strength in the pelvic and lower body muscle through exercise and rehabilitation.
Detailed Description:
This study will provide data on benefits of combination the multimodal strengthening and aerobic conditioning rehabilitation program with pelvic floor muscle training and will help to characterize changes in pelvic floor and lower extremity muscles in older women with urinary incontinence.
The study focuses on a patient-centered approach to improve overall physical function in older women. The study will evaluate the incremental benefit of endurance and lower extremity muscle strengthening in addition to benefits from pelvic floor muscle training. We anticipate that this approach will decrease rates of urinary incontinence because the proposed intervention will focus on prevention of functional decline through endurance, strength, and balance training among older women.
The study will evaluate the pathophysiology of urinary incontinence in older women through evaluation of pelvic floor and lower extremities muscles with an innovative MRI protocol.
