Pelvic‐floor therapy in girls with recurrent urinary tract infections and dysfunctional voiding

Abstract

The training programme was effective in treating recurrent UTI in 35 of 42 girls (83%). The persistence of incontinence problems is a bad prognostic factor for the recurrence of UTI after the training programme. Pelvic-floor therapy seems a reasonable and meaningful component in the treatment of recurrent UTIs in which detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia plays a role.
