Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Fractional microablative radiofrequency, pelvic floor muscle training, and the combination of the two treatments will show significant improvement in stress urinary incontinence.;The association of fractional microablative radiofrequency with pelvic floor muscle training will present higher success rates in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence than the two therapy alone. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1: Both fractional microablative radiofrequency and pelvic floor muscle training will result in improved contractility of pelvic floor muscles, but associated techniques will promote a more significant result;;Expected outcome 2: both fractional microablative radiofrequency and pelvic floor muscle training will result in improved urethral and bladder neck mobility, mucosal thickness and vaginal wall through ultrasound, but the associated techniques will promote a more significant outcome;Expected outcome 3: only groups with fractional microablative radiofrequency will result in improvement of vaginal trophism;Expected outcome 4: only groups with fractional microablative radiofrequency will result in improved sexual function. | — |
