Brief Summary: Tele-rehabilitation involves health care services support and information provided remotely via digital communication and devices It intends to facilitate effective delivery of health services such as physical therapy by improving access to care and information and managing health care resources Other terms such as telehealth telemonitoring tele-rehabilitation tele-education and tele-assistance describe digital practice Due to the pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 COVID-19 health associations worldwide have released recommendations about care from distance using tools of communication and information technologies
Detailed Description: The female pelvic floor serves multiple functions pleasure and sexuality parturition urination and urinary continence defecation and fecal continence and keeping the pelvic organs in position To perform its functions the pelvic floor needs an intact anatomical structure consisting of muscle connective tissue and nerves Moreover its function is subject to control by the central nervous system Pelvic floor function and continence can thus be impaired not only by direct anatomical injury as in vaginal delivery but also by dysfunctional neural control eg in neurologic disease diabetic neuropathy and cognitive disorders lange 2007

The percentage of women suffering from pelvic floor dysfunction PFD ranges from 30 to 50 the main types of female pelvic floor dysfunction involve urinary andor fecal incontinence and prolapse of the female reproductive organs Pregnancy and delivery are an important risk factor for urinary incontinence jundt et al 2015

One of the most problems of pelvic floor dysfunction is stress urinary incontinence SUI SUI defined as the involuntary sudden loss of urine secondary to increased intra-abdominal pressure that is bothersome or affecting the patients quality of life Physical activities precipitating SUI include laughing sneezing straining coughing or exercising Patients may refer to a sudden loss of urine as leaking dripping or flooding The patient may initially present with urinary complaints of frequency urgency and dysuria SUI affects 157 of adult women 775 of women report the symptoms to be bothersome and 288 report the symptoms to be moderate to severe Prevalence of SUI increases with age particularly with menopause Nygaard et al 2008

Stress urinary incontinence can exert a significant impact on a patients life Treatment aims at improving the quality of life Complete resolution of SUI may not be feasible and a combination of behavioral pharmacological and surgical treatment may be necessary Some patients may be satisfied with improved SUI without complete resolution especially if it avoids surgery

Tele-rehabilitation involves health care services support and information provided remotely via digital communication and devices It intends to facilitate effective delivery of health services such as physical therapy by improving access to care and information and managing health care resources Other terms such as telehealth telemonitoring tele-rehabilitation tele-education and tele-assistance describe digital practice Due to the pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 COVID-19 health associations worldwide have released recommendations about care from distance using tools of communication and information technologies Dantas et al 2020

Although the panadeimic has been decreased with tele-rehabilitation The patient dont have to drive to the doctors office or clinic park walk or sit in a waiting room when he is sick Everyone can see his doctor from the comfort of his own bed or sofa Virtual visits can be easier to fit into a busy schedule With telerehabilitation Depending on the patient schedule NO one will have to take time from work or arrange for child care

Research question

This study was done to answer the following question was it feasible to assess stress urinary incontinence through tele-rehabilitation
