Biofeedback therapy technique for treatment of urinary incontinence.

Biofeedback treatment of urinary incontinence is a management method that has low risk and therapeutic efficacy for selected patients. Biofeedback therapy techniques vary widely and have not been well described or standardized. A technique for biofeedback therapy is described that allows accurate signal monitoring and assures appropriate biofeedback to the patient. External anal sphincter electromyographic performance is presented to the patient as a color line graph with pitch variable audio feedback. The method has complete flexibility in providing biofeedback training according to patient performance level and is one that can be easily interpreted by patients who have voiding dysfunctions.
