Brief Summary
Introduction: Urinary incontinence is a condition that affects most women in her adult life; it is considered a public health problem and has a high negative impact on the quality of life. Physical therapy is considered as the first treatment option for this disease, these treatments are done with pelvic floor muscles exercises (kinesiotherapy) with or without the use of other resources such as biofeedback, electrical stimulation and vaginal cones. Rationale: The protocols used in the various studies on the treatment of urinary incontinence are made with only one type of therapy and have no change in the intensity of the exercises. The "Active Perineal Rehabilitation" protocol uses kinesiotherapy with biofeedback, electrical stimulation, vaginal cones and home exercises; it consists of 14 individual sessions that gradually evolve the intensity of exercises. Objective: To assess the scientific validity of "Active Perineal Rehabilitation" protocol for the treatment of urinary incontinence. Methodology: A multicenter, prospective clinical trial, controlled and randomized, the sample will be divided into a study group that will be treated with the Active Perineal Rehabilitation protocol, and a control group will be treated with the protocol already widely used. Keys Words: urinary incontinence, physical therapy, rehabilitation, pelvic floor, perineum, conservative treatment
