Abstract
Purpose. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of progressive resistance training on post prostatectomy stress urinary incontinence. Materials and Methods. Sixty male patients who complaint from post prostatectomy stress urinary incontinence were participated in this study, their ages were ranged from 40 to 75 years and they were randomly assigned into two equal groups. Group (A) (Study group): This group included 30 patients who had post prostatectomy stress urinary incontinence and they received progressive resistance training in addition to interferential current stimulation and routine medical treatment three sessions per week for 12 weeks. Group (B) (Control group): This group included 30 patients who had post prostatectomy stress urinary incontinence and they received interferential current stimulation and routine medical treatment three sessions per week for 12 weeks. Pre- and post-treatment assessment using DANTIC UD 5000/5500 Urodynamic investigation system & Severity index scale were done for all patients. Results. The obtained results of the present study indicated significant difference of all measured variables when comparing between pre and post- treatment values of the groups (A and B) and revealed significant difference when comparing between post- treatment values of the groups (A and B) in favor of group (A). Conclusion. Progressive resistance training had an effect on reducing post prostatectomy stress urinary incontinence and there was significant difference when comparing between post-treatment values of the groups (A and B) in favor of group (A).
