179: health technology assessment of femiscan for urinary incontinence management: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Conclusion:
No significant difference was seen between adding or not-adding biofeedback to PFMT. In total, non-surgical treatments have appropriate effectiveness and cost-effectiveness. Although, due to the regulatory effect of biofeedback on training it can be mentioned that performing PFMT with observation and also using PFMT along with bio feedback can be considered as an effective intervention in contrast to using PFMT without any observation. This conclusion is obtained with regard to the therapeutic effects and the economic analysis.
