Total Control™ Research Study Results Presented at AUGS
In September, 2005, Dr. Linda Brubaker
presented a poster at the American Urogynecologic Society’s annual meeting
highlighting the results of a 2004 research study done at Loyola University
Medical Center in Maywood, IL. 23 women participated in a pilot study using the
Total Control™ program. Program participants reported both statistically
significant improvement for stress and urge incontinence symptoms and
statistically significant decreases in rates of bothersomeness at the end of
the 11 week class. This is the first study to use a fitness class format to
assess the impact of non-medical intervention on symptoms of incontinence.
Further research was launched in January, 2006 building on this data using
a larger, three site model.
