The Development of a Physical Therapy Service to treat Urinary Incontinence: Results of a RE-AIM Evaluation

Source : https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fgwh.2022.1004140/abstract

Background: A conservative physiotherapy service development addressed to treat urinary incontinence for older women was studied using the RE-AIM (reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance) framework. Design: We conducted a pragmatic case study design based on RE-AIM.


Conclusion: Our findings demonstrate that UI patients would benefit from physiotherapy treatment and that this intervention is feasible. This RE-AIM evaluation provides lessons learned and strategies for future adoption, implementation, and maintenance of a Physical Therapy pelvic service.
